Scratched Screen

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

I searched the last few pages and couldn't find an answer..

A friend of mine bought a used sidekick with many, light scratches on the screen. They aren't deep at all. Any idea on how to remove them or make them disappear or anything? I tried google and the only results I could find were for an iPod.

Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Screen polishes almost NEVER work. From reviews and personal experience I have never found one to work
.
In Canada, almost any Fido repair shop. In the U.S., not so much. Ebay at this point, search for a broken Sidekick 2 (one with a cracked LCD is fine because the LCD and the Lens to the screen are different parts). Just make sure to ask about the "outer screen plastic", you don't want to buy a used SK2 with the same type of scratches.

Also, it's a D.I.Y. job (do it yourself), if you don't know how to take apart the phone (chances are, if you don't know where to get this lens, than you don't know how to do it, but I won't totally assume here) I wouldn't even try without reading up first.

Hm, thanks anyway. I'm not in the mood to damage someone's device.
