chirpy Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 THE outside of tv screen appears to have a mark on it and after gentle cleaning it seems larger.Is the screen like a liquid crystal display which when you press on them can be distorted?TV is 2 years old and cleaner was propriety window clener spayed on to surface.THANKS.

splishsplash Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 You should not use these types of cleaners on LCD, Plasma etc. There are special cleaners you can find online by searching for cleaning LCD & Plasma screens, but I just use one of those magic dusters on mine & they come up like new.

PeteinHeusse Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Hi,If the screen is glass and not plasma/lcd, you may find a mild solution of washing up liquid on a slightly damp cloth works well. Obviously disconnect the tv from the mains first!! Also make sure it is well polished and dryed with a soft cloth or paper towel afterwards.I'm sure I've seen a proprietary LCD screen cleaner in Super U as well, if you feel like splashing out!!Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pierre ZFP Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 TFT = Thin Film TransistorIt's the technology used in most (all?) LCD screens nowadays.Before this, the passive matrix LCD had trouble keeping up with fast moving images Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is no glass screen cover then the following info may be of interest. LCD screens have a protective coat applied at the factory. To clean them you should not use abrasive or chemical cleaners just a soft damp cloth. I would suggest that the 'shadow' is where you have rubbed the protective coat off the screen.

chirpy Posted March 25, 2009 Author Share Posted March 25, 2009 My son visited this weekend from uk and he gently touched the screen and it shows movement under the glass so i will go to tv shop tomorrow as I paid 750 euro for this thomson model and it is 6months past the2 year guarantee--do you think i should have it repaired free??

Pierre ZFP Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Is it plasma or LCD?Unfortunately plasma screens have a tendency to degrade over time and the pixels won't light up properly or at all. This is especially so if the screen has been knocked or dare I say it, rubbed a bit hard when cleaning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
