I guess the customary usenet response, "you're ****ed" is not what you

Yeah I am not feeling good about what happened, might call the "TV Doctor"
repairman today, see what he says, but curious if anybody else has heard
of what happened, seemed if might be common if caused just by cleaning the
screen. Not sure what I will do if it can not be repaired, I guess try
and sell it used, buy a new one.

#1 Do not use GLASS cleaner on PLASTIC.
#2 Never spray any cleaner directly on a Tv screen
#3 Do NOT tell the repair person what happened. Maybe they will just repair

it
under warranty.


I agree with #3. #1 is overstated. Glass cleaner will eventually discolor
the screen, but one application won't have any noticeable effect. No
ammount of applications will crack a screen.

You DO NOT want to use any cleaner with ammonia on plastic, period!
