Restoring a Predicta Tandem
#32

I'm actually picking up a 17 inch Predicta tonight, and possibly a 21" table top next week, Ill let you know if they smell too. Also I work for an electrical company and we often have to get replacement lenses made for weather proof outdoor light fixtures. Usually all they need is a sample, sometimes we bring them 2 halves and they make us one solid one that's identical. I am going to see if maybe they can do my screen cover. Heres what My screen looked like before cleaning.... I have to put some after pics up tonight.

AAran what is your mixture of Trisodium phophate and water? Do you spray it on? Id like to try it. My set really smells. Right now its apart in my basement and the whole basement smells. Im starting to think I cant use this thing in my house. When I bought the TV and I  was driving home I had the tv laying on the floor in my truck and the heat was blowing on it, the whole way home I was passing refineries and dumps, and I thought that was the smell...
