I'm in the process of removing anti-glare coating from an old Sony monitor. It had already been partially removed, so just completely the process.
I managed to get most of it off with IPA and scrubbing with paper towels. Some of it was quite stubborn, so I used some plastic polish / scratch remover. This helped somewhat, but also roughed up the surface slightly. It's now a bit cloudy in those spots. I want to go further and smooth out the glass back to a mirror finish.
I've been looking into materials like Cerium Oxide powder to potentially use: https://www.amazon.ca/Cerium-Glass-Polishing- … d=30U38NWN7OVS0
I've also been wondering about using mechanical polishing (e.g. via a Dremel) versus just by hand. Up to now I've been sticking with hand polishing, since I don't want to potentially abrade the surface too much.
Has anyone used any polishes on CRT glass? Any tips or advice?
