CRT coating is scratched

Whoa, talk about bringing back a dead thread lol.

How big is the scratch (can you live with it)?

I often find a good cleaning with good window cleaning solution gets out the "scratches" in the antiglare coat. More often than not its just a grease stain from your fingers or some other mark. It is actually quite hard to scratch the coating. Give your screen a good once over with a soft cloth and window cleaner then get back to us if you still have a problem.

I'm guessing SS didn't have any issues with his screen though, guys here tend to post updates and warnings if things turn into a problem

Thanks. :)

Yeah, its about 3 inches. I can feel it if I run my nail (a soft part of it Razz

) across it.

Ouch, you must have been rubbing pretty hard lol.

Good luck, hope the car polish solution works for you.

And remember kids, don't use your nails to scrape dirt of your CRT
