  • There are several 'scratch reducers' on the market. many use a wax paste to fill in the scratch. but you need to be very careful when applying these to a TV screen. The reality is that nothing will remove the scratches and buffing them out is NOT AN OPTION.
  • I was successful in removing scratches from my TV screen. The scratch on the glass was about 1/8”x1/8” and didn’t appear to be very deep. I read a tip on a website that said to use toothpaste as a mild abrasive to buff out the scratch. I used a Q-tip without the cotton as a buffing tool to spot treat the scratch area (I broke the Q-tip in half and used the stem). The black mark on the screen was almost impossible to see after about 20 minutes of rubbing. I continued to buff the rest of the scratch out which took about one hour.
  • Scratched glass under compression can be dangerous (more prone to failure). In televisions, the glass is like a giant light bulb that is completely emptied of air, so it is always ready to implode like a submarine getting crushed in a hollywood movie. A scratch can be a a weak spot and implosion can send glass flying when it collides together. Although the flying glass is just tiny shards that can,t penetrate skin, only one has to hit your eye to make it a big deal. So safety glass might be a good idea when working on the tube that close. You will be able to make the scratch duller with some work.
