Screen for Panasonic TH-L32X30A - Scratched

[Griff]

Hi.
Have been given a Panasonic TH-L32X30A tv to repair. Screen has deep
scratch around 5cm long that shows as a white line when tv is on.
Cost of new LCD panel is more than the cost of new tv.

Have read that using a rubber or vaseline may help to hide scratch.

Just wondered if anyone has a second hand screen available they may
like to sell.


Thanks,
Russell.

Have you thought of asking a car windscreen repair company?

Scratch or gouge? Does it appear white because the surface of the scratch
area is not smooth?

Can you polish it smooth using toothpick & toothpaste/car polish to
minimise the effect.

Sounds like it's penetrated the polarising film.

If it shows white in a dark room the scratch has gone through the
front polariser and possibly through the colour mask too.

these are both LCD componets with fine structure. neither is likely to
be repairable.

I have an LCD TV that I picked up from the verge.
It had been just chucked there and sustained a bad scratch, which did
look quite white.
I fixed the back light and tried Vaseline, and it works well. So it was
not too deep then I suppose.
I see the smudge when the TV is off, but when it is on I see next to
nothing of the scratch. Looks just fine.
