novus plastic polish

[dmbj]

Has anyone ever tried it on an LCD panel? I picked up a few non working LCD monitors yesterday(Yay freecycle), Repaired 3 out of 5. but 2 of the ones i fixed have scuffs on the lcd panels. So I was just wondering if anyone had ever tried novus on one? or anything else that may have worked out.


BTW of the two i did not fix, one had a cracked screen and The other one I will be posting pics of soon just in case anyone has any ideas of what to do to fix it. But i think it has at least one bad ccfl and i hate dealing with those anymore

dmbj,
Sorry I can't offer you anything helpful when it comes to using novus. I have used Nu Finish, "Scratch Doctor", Clear Coat Scratch Remover before and I had some good and some not so good results.

What I did determine, is the obvious.....some scratches come out very well, others not so well depending on the severity. I do have some "nice" scratches that might need a sand blaster or pressure cleaner to get them to even budge!!!!

If you don't mind me asking, how do you like using freecycle.org? I was just told about the site by a co-worker who thought I would like it.....and I do!!
I enjoy tinkering with monitors and the like, so it is right up my alley!!

Re: novus plastic polish

I have some of this Novus plastic polish, it works great on scratched CD's, DVD's, games but I haven't tried it on LCD's yet. I got this stuff called DISPLEX display polish on ebay awhile back to try on a 15" LCD TV with a deep scratch around the middle of the screen. It worked alright, but it took a lot of the polish and rubbing to make it less noticeable with the TV on, but when it's off you can see a bright area where the top matte layer was removed. Also it was about $8 for the tiny tube, it was 5g which isn't much. This stuff it really made for cell phone screen covers, the plastic part, not actual LCD's.
