Hello there,

I have a beovision 3 tv its in good all round condition but the edges of the glass front (where the black border is) have been rubbed due to how it was transported by previous owner, therefore the anti reflective coating has rubbed off around the edges.

Is there a way to repair this, a spray/solution of some sort?

Your help would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

I had a similar discussion with an authorized repairer here recently about how you could repair scratches on the screen of a beovision 8-32.

The answer was you cant - it would cost about $1K AUD  to replace the whole screen.

You can buy 4 BV3's 2nd hand for that amount of money here in Holland!Big Smile

I agree its not small money, unfortunately in Australia we pay way more than waht we should for decent gear.

We pay ( last time I looked ) an extra 50% luxury car tax for vehicles roughly over 57K AUD I think it is ( I could be wrong ), to "protect" a "local" car induistry thats made up of maufacturers from overseas.  Lunacy. Its called corporate welfare.

Companies here know that the few people in Australia who appreciate good gear, whether it be cars or hi fi, will pay for good gear. The downside is the resellers will gouge us, as its too expensive to hop on a plane and go shopping else where for this stuff as then HMG decides to get in on the act and penalise you again as you import, for having good taste.

Europe is good - lots of gear around and there is competition.
