Most of these Laptop Screens get Worn in the same place...

.....it's the edge of the palm-rest, along the edge
of the keyboard, where the space bar is.

I've seen many LCD screens get scuffed from the
edge there. It's not a scratch per se, but it's not
something you can buff out easily, and it usually
pretty visible when you are using the computer.
Apparently, the tolerances aren't easily controlled,
and in the effort to make these slimmer, the screens
rub against the palm-rest when closed.

It's too bad, because the re-sale value of a used laptop
greatly depends on the clarity of the LCD screen.

I wonder if some polishing compound rubbed in could take it off? I will have to try it next time I have one of these.

Good question. Some people apparently have
had success removing scratches with an eraser,
which also removes the matte finish, so it's a
noticeable repair unless the screen is on.

But dunno if that would work in this case.
Perhaps those car scratch-remover polishes,
with a buffing wheel on a dremel tool? might be
too strong....
