Re: is there any way to remove minor scratches on TV LCD screen
Lots of old dodges like Beeswax and Oil,--Think covering scratches on higly polished wood surfaces.....
Maybe Brasso will polish it out--But will also make for a shiny area rather than the matte surface of usual LCD....TELEFIX
How PLASMA SCREENS WORK, X-SUS and Y-SUS what they do--

Re: is there any way to remove minor scratches on TV LCD screen
Matt a few years ago we had those machines who could buff a CD with some plactic material, it would remove the scratches from the surface of a CD. You could simply get that machine, it has a very fast rotating motor on which some plastic material is connected. Once it comes in contact with the surface you want to remove scratches from, it fills those scratches up with plastic. I'm not sure if we can find those easily today though.

I use 91% isopropyl alcohol with a cue tip and rub straight along the scratch since i get
tv's from a recyling place most have some scratches but i have had good luck with this technique if you try this, test on a small spot and if it makes things worse then do not
do the rest of the scratches with this technique but for almost every tv i have worked
on this has worked great for me

Re: is there any way to remove minor scratches on TV LCD screen
There was silicone heatsink compound (clear), instead of the newer white stuff, made by GC electronics, it works well. You just smear it in the scratch with your finger, then buff off the rest along the scratch with a microfiber cloth. It was like Vaseline (petro jelly), not sure if that the Vaseline would work, as it's a petro product, and might react to the plastic, but the GC silicone heat sink compound worked like magic when we used it. one thing, it never sets, so you periodically might have to reapply if you clean the rest of the screen, but we were shocked how well it worked. The scratches literally disappeared. You could try the Vaseline on a junk screen and see if it does the same thing, and not eat the plastic if you can't locate any GC Electronics clear heat sink compound

BTW, this tip came from another tech, he said he read it on some forum but we just happened to have some of that clear stuff in stock. I can't remember what forum or who he got the tip from, sorry to whoever originally discovered this.
