As Seen On TV

A TV screen protector is a deceptively simple piece of hardware. All screen protectors do basically the same thing and achieve the desired result for the consumer. They are all made from the same optical grade acrylic, which is cut and molded to fit the size of most TV screens. They attach to your TV screen using Velcro straps.

Lets now review at some commonly asked questions and the answers to them…

- What materials are used to make TV screen protectors? They are made using a special type of acrylic (optical grade. Optical grade acrylic is actually pretty impressive stuff, as it is scratch resistant, anti-glare and anti-reflective. The newer acrylic materials being used in these products was developed by NASA, so you can have faith in it. The stuff is strong, reliable and provides more than enough protection.

- Are screen protectors easy to fit onto TVs? Currently, all protectors on the market use a simple method utilizing Velcro straps to attach to your television. Once placed on your TV, there are rubber or felt tabs that rest against the frame around your screen. These “bumpers” act as shock absorbers. They are very effective and work to absorb the shock or force when something hits the screen.

- What do these products protect against? Not only do they protect against thrown gaming controllers, but also pets that like pawing at the screen, kids who throw things, clumsy adults, etc. It should be noted that if you purchased a warranty, it is probable that this warranty does not cover accidental screen contact resulting a damaged screen.

- Who makes these products? There are a few major brands to choose from. The only significant difference between each one are slight variations in the way the Velcro straps attach to the acrylic protector and, in some instances, the thickness of the protector itself. Remember, the thinner the acrylic, the more flex will be present in the Protector. If an object strikes a thinner protector, there is a good chance the protector itself will flex and strike the surface of the TV with enough force to damage it.
