Burn In

(1/3) > >>

CPickler:
Is there anything I can do to get rid of the burn in on my arcade monitor?  Or to at least lessen it?

DaemonCollector:
Smoked glass in front of the monitor can reduce the burn in, but beyond that, I think all you can do is replace the tube.

CPickler:
is it the tube that get's the image burned in on it, or is it the screen of the monitor?

Ken Layton:
The inside face of the picture tube (the phosphors) are permanently burnt.

You can:

buy a new monitor

get a different used monitor

swap in a new or good used picture tube (time consuming)

use this monitor in a Sky Shark as it hides burn in during play

CPickler:
what is a sky shark?
