Managed to scratch my LCD monitor.

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
Hey. I have a BenQ 24" LCD G2450HM monitor which i've managed to give a 5-6 centimeter scratch, and wondered if there is any tip/trick to remove it without sending it in for plastic panel replacement?

Just googled "how to fix scratch in lcd screen" and these are the most helfull ones i could find.
http://www.mademan.com/mm/how-fix-deep-scratches-flatscreen-monitor.html
http://www.wikihow.com/Fix-a-Scratch-on-an-LCD-Screen
Iv never used these techniques to remove a scratch from my lcd screen myself so i don't know if it works for curtain, but if i scratched my screen this would be the first thing id turn to.
If that doesn't work then i would just suggest buying a monitor or sending it off for a panel replacement, but anyway i hope those links will help.

Good luck
