Scratched LCD

[Andor]

Is there anyway to "fix" a scratch or make it less noticable?

Anyone have any experience with:

Merlin's LCD Magic Scratch Repair Kit

Also I found:
http://www.moniserv.com/

A LOT more expensive but hell of a lot more professional way to repair scratches. Doesn't appear worth it for low end LCDs. Anyone have any experience with these guys?

I figured someone out there must have scratched their LCD? Anyone? Anyone? Bueler? Bueler?

Does anyone have a dead LCD they would be willing to send me? I'll pay for shipping. (smaller the better)

Perhaps a picture of said scratch would help?

I have yet to scratch an LCD (monitor) and I have done my best to avoid it on electronics (PDA, etc) by using screen protectors. My camera sitll has yet to develop a strach on the screen... durable little device...

I thought I was doing my best....till my wife got me in a huge rush to clean up my computer area. Had the side off my computer...went to go put it back on and cliped the right hand edge of the screen. I had some choice words I yelled out at that point.

Anyway it's about a 1.5-2inch scratch. And it's not a hairline scratch, it's more like a gouge. I'll see about taking a pic.

I got a couple scratches on my LCD as well. I was moving it around and I forgot I had a pair of plyers in my pocket. Nuf said. Fortunately they only went into the "plastic" part enough to just show up and be annoying as hell. I'll be following this thread if it does go anywhere for a fix.
