Gouged screen - repairable?

LCD Television technology has been around for a long time, but it keeps getting better. If you have a brighter room, LCD televisions will do a much better job at giving you excellent picture quality.

Gouged screen - repairable?

Postby noakes » Sat May 21, 2011 12:49 am

I have a Samsung LCD tv that was given to me.
The screen has been damaged, one reason it was rejected by the owner, by a pretty deep gouge. The pixels in the area of the gouge seem ok but they are quite bright compared to the other pixels as the gouge went into the dark colored section of the screen.

I would like to try to save this set if possible. I have thought about using an eyedropper to put a weal alcohol solution in the gouge to see if it will dissolve any of the dark color and allow it to run into the gouge area.

I thought about using a brown marker in the area but figured it would totally block and pixels behind it.

This gouge is too deep for the eraser technique which wouldn't address the removal of the colored layer.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
