Title: Is it possible to repair scratches on monitor?
Post by: EDD on January 13, 2015, 10:45:11 pm
I recently scratched my arcade monitor and I was wondering if it was possible to buff it out? They are hairline scratches.

Wow, thats deep!
Can't remember what the name was, but there is some kits basically for front windows for cars that you can try, but it's maybe too deep!
But if it bother you, give it a try!
