scratch on lcd screen brands

I do take extreme care when replacing screens but the screen shattered on this one & the tool i was using to get the shattered bits of glass off slipped

Every few years, the standards that are associated with computer peripherals change. For example, the previous CD-Rom standards were upgraded to CD writers, then it became DVD drives and the now, the accepted standard are DVD writers.LCD monitors are the new standard in computer displays. Though they have not yet replaced CRT (cathode ray tube) monitors completely, LCD monitors are fast rising in popularity because of their extremely sleek looks, lower power consumption and more convenient footprint on a desk.

LCD monitors at this point are still quite expensive though and thus, extra care should be given to the unit so that it will maintain its pristine condition.

Probably the most important part that should be taken care of in an LCD monitor is the screen itself. The screen is not as tough as the glass tube of a CRT. If you have an LCD screen you will notice that only a clear, thick plastic separates your fingers from the actual components of the LCD. It is imperative that you take care of your LCD screen as much as possible and prevent it from being scratched.

There is a way though of repairing a scratched LCD screen though that is inexpensive and very easy. All you need is Vaseline petroleum jelly to fill the scratch on the LCD screen. This very simple remedy works because the optical density of Vaseline more closely matches the LCD face compared to air.

All you need to do is to clean the surface of the screen and then take some Vaseline and fill the scratch with it. Gently wipe off the excess Vaseline taking care not to wipe too forcefully so that you leave some inside the scratch.

These monitors are all name brand. They are mixed brands like Dell, Samsung, HP, LG, Acer, and Lenovo. These monitors are all tested, working and come with a 90 Day Warranty. We simply don"t have enough of the same model numbers to make a listing for each one. If you just want a good monitor at a great price put it in your cart.

Please note if you would like matching Monitors or specific Video Connection-Types, please put in a request in the Notes field and we will try to match the request. Most of these units will have VGA and/or DVI connectors. So if you need DVI or VGA, please specify.

Found this...dont know if it helps....this was for a computer lcd screen not sure if its the same for the lcd screen on the back of digital cameras. Maybe someone else could suggest an alternative.

1. First of all apply diluted isopropyl alcohol (50/50 with water) with a clean cotton cloth on the surface of the screen. This should make the surface clear of any dirt and then you can put Vaseline in the trough of scratch. Gently wipe the Vaseline left off the scratch. This should fill the scratch with Vaseline and you can again enjoy gaming or watching videos on your screen.

2. You can also do this trick to get you rid of the scratch if the scratch is particularly harsh. Start with cleaning the surface with diluted isopropyl alcohol (50/50 with water) as mentioned in previous way. Apply a bit of auto rubbing compound the scratched surface and polish the area. After that, use a piece of paper and make a very small hole (5mm) in its centre to spray clear lacquer on the surface. Leave the surface to dry after that.

I just got my NIB WOZ ECLE this evening and have been really enjoying it. After getting my initial games in I decided to update the software and while taking the time to closely examine things I noticed what I thought was a hair on the back glass. When I looked closer I saw that it was actually a scratch on the monitor underneath the glass. When I removed the back glass I could also tell that I was not the first to notice since with the glass off I could see there were smudgy finger prints across the scratch where I guess someone tried to rub it out with their finger. So while it"s a little disappointing that the scratch was noticed at the factory and not handled there I totally understand that things happen it was probably small enough to not trigger any action. After all it"s barely noticeable and had I not been staring at the screen watching the update I probably would never had noticed just playing the game.

So my question is, is there a safe way to remove a scratch from the WOZ LCD screen? I guess it really applies to any LCD screen. The scratch is small (about 1/2" long but deep enough that running a soft cloth over the area i can feel a slight ridge.

Mitsubishi Electric company from Japan is well-known the world over for large-screen display panels and industrial-strength LCD monitors. Some of the popular models in use today include the Mitsubishi LDT461V industrial monitor along with the MDT461S and MDT402S LCD monitors.

You may notice that all of these monitors are pretty big in size, ranging from 40-46 ″. To make a comparison, they are similar to the sizes common among plasma televisions, but the technology that powers them is pure LCD.

And like any other LCD monitor manufactured in past two decades, there are two problems that affect even the Mitsubishi monitor– (1) Scratched screen, and (2) Dead backlight.

Since Mitsubishi LCDs are used as industrial-grade displays, the front panel is pretty strong and resistant to scratching. There’s a manufacturing difference between screens used in an industrial setup and one installed in homes.

In the latter case, chances of minor yet visible scratches across the screen are pretty high. The quick fix is to either use a little toothpaste to “fill in” the scratch gaps, or to use a white eraser and vigorously (but gently) rub over the visible scratches.

Make sure it is a brand new one that has never been used before if you’re using an eraser. I’ve tried this scratch repair trick on certain projection TVs and it works fine there.

The second problem is that of backlight repair. The backlight is a thin CCFL tube that lights up the monitor screen. It is powered by an inverter board that converts low-voltage DC input to high-voltage AC output.

A regular backlight bulb lasts anywhere from 3-5 years before it loses part of its brightness. As time progresses, the whole screen goes black and you have no option but to replace the backlight.

Backlight failure is a problem that affects all LCD monitors– including Mitsubishi– though the lifespan will vary based on how you operate it and the quality of in-built electronic components.

The easiest way to repair a LCD backlight is to get a compatible replacement from eBay or the manufacturer’s website. For the most part, you don’t need to buy a new inverter as the existing one can be reused.

The second problem is that of backlight repair. The backlight is a thin CCFL tube that lights up the monitor screen. It is powered by an inverter board that converts low-voltage DC input to high-voltage AC output.

The easiest and, in my opinion, best option is to just buy a new monitor, or see if Dell can fix the scratch for you (if the scratch is not covered under warranty, be prepared to cough up)

Magic erasers are usually used for cleaning up messes, but could they clean up scratches? Yup. It wiped out small scratches on the phone"s screen in just a few seconds. Taylor Martin has a tutorial on how to make your own magic erasers for just around $0.10 (£0.07 or AU$0.14) each.

Wiping a screen with toothpaste (not the gel kind) supposedly works for fixing scratched screens. All it did in my tests was make the screen shinier and seemed to add small abrasion marks. I also tried toothpaste on a plastic screen protector, such as the kind that comes with OtterBox phone cases. It worked great on that! So it"s a no for screens, but a yes for plastic screen protectors.

Erasers work great for making scratches disappear. I used a white rubber eraser, but you can also use the type that"s found on the end of a pencil. Simply rub the scratch left and right with the eraser for about 60 seconds, and then rub it up and down for 60 seconds. The friction softens the eraser and it fills in the scratch. Don"t press down too hard, though!

Car waxes and headlight lens creams are supposed to be effective at removing scratches on screens, so I gave Mothers PowerPlastic 4Lights headlight cream a try. It made the scratches fade significantly, and l liked the shine it gave my screen.

A paste of two parts baking soda to one part water has been bandied about as a great screen fixer. Nope. It just made the screen really shiny. Plus, the moisture in the paste could damage your device.

According to the internet, coconut oil can solve just about any problem. Shockingly, it didn"t work well on phone scratches. Like with the petroleum jelly, it just made the phone super slippery.

I wasn"t sure about this tip. Sites say to mix the corn starch with a little water to make a paste, rub it on the screen with a soft cloth, and then wipe it off. It didn"t do anything to the scratches, but it made the screen shiny.

OK, this one freaked me out. A lot. Putting gooey, oily stuff on electronics is never a good idea, but I gave it a shot in the name of science. I dabbed a bit on as recommended, and rubbed it into the screen with a tissue. As I feared, all it did was make the test screen oily and sticky.

Why do people think it"s a good idea to rub food on their phones? Nope, rubbing a banana peel on your screen won"t help it. I tried it a couple different ways and it just left a crusty mess that is hard to remove.

Powdered cleanser like Bar Keepers Friend, Comet, Ajax and the like seem a good idea for buffing out scratches. They are slightly abrasive, so you"d think they"d polish your screen to a gleaming scratch-free shine. Well, they don"t. They can even leave new little scratches on your screen. Yah, this test didn"t go well.

People often clean their car touchscreens by hard rubbing the cleaning cloths, which leaves scratches on display. These scratches may not be long-lasting, but they look bad on shiny digital displays. Here are some easy tips to remove the scratches without damaging the display.

However, before reading that, know for sure that it is always best to use a glass protector on the touchscreen display of the car to get rid of the scratches on it. These protectors act as buffers between the glass and any other external touching element. Also, in case there is a scratch or damage on the glass protector, it can be changed easily, which is way more convenient and money-saving than changing the whole digital display.

Toothpaste can be useful in removing scratches from the touchscreen of a car. Take a soft cloth or cotton and dip it in a small amount of toothpaste. Rub the piece of cloth or cotton on the vehicle screen gently. Rub it in a spinning motion, not randomly. Ensure not to use toothpaste excessively and not to rub the cloth harshly against the screen. Once done, clean the screen with a soft dry cloth to remove the toothpaste.

Baking powder can be useful in removing scratches from a touchscreen infotainment display. Mix a little amount of water with an adequate amount of baking powder. Mix it until it becomes a paste. Take a soft cloth and dip it in the paste, and then rub the cloth on the screen gently in a spinning motion. Once done, take a clean and soft cloth and wipe the paste of the baking soda and water from the screen.

While there are several visible scratches on the touchscreen, some invisible and small scratches too remain there, which are hard to find. However, applying vegetable oil can be useful in removing them. Dip a soft cloth slightly in vegetable oil and rub it on the screen gently. After rubbing it for around 10-15 minutes, take a clean cloth and clean the oil from the screen. Ensure you use normal temperature oil only, not too hot or cold ones.

There are specific scratch-elimination creams in the market that can be useful in removing the car touchscreen"s scratches. Take a small amount of cream on a soft cloth and apply it gently on the screen. Also, ensure you rub the cloth in a spinning motion and not randomly. Continue this process for 15-20 minutes, and then remove the cream applied to the screen with a clean cloth. This will help in the removal of the scratches from the touchscreen.
