So while fiddling with my and object fell from the top of my case BOUNCED on my desk and scratched the bottom of my catleap Leaving this great dirty white mark, From my understanding there are two layers above the pixels A polarisation layer, And a protective layer And while the display still works, Theres a great white mark on the bottom corner where it was scratched, I don't think it'll be fixable, Maybe but unlikely.


3 weeks i had everything nice and happy, and now it's all ruined sigh.

Picture?

The good thing about the Dell monitors is the anti glare coating prevents most scratches from occurring. Since the Catleap and other korean monitors have no coating, the screen can get scratched easily...

It looks like replacement panels for that are $179-$199 on eBay. LM270WQ1 is the model number to search for.

You might try a coat of clear that matches the finish of the coating. If you're gonna replace it anyways, try it out.

Exaggeration much? http://www.amazon.com/Dell-UltraSharp-U2711-27-inch-Widescreen/dp/B0039648BO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1342227902&sr=8-1&keywords=u2711
I could have that monitor here tomorrow for under $800.
