I got a MBP here that seems to be affected with the stain gate issue that I’ve seen around but mine isn’t as bad as others I’ve seen. I’m just wondering if mine is worth removing because on one hand, it’s not that bad in dim conditions but really noticeable in daylight. Also, I’ve seen plenty of horror stories with people ruining their screens with listerine getting underneath the display or breaking the screen with pressure and I’m kinda worried about preforming the AG-coating removal procedure. Basically, is my Anti-glare coating worth removing and if it is, which method is least likely to cause damage? Also, is image quality affected other than the anti glare properties if I were to remove the coating? Like a loss in color accuracy or something like that. UPDATE I used some Kirkland signature baby wipes to remove the layer but it was taking forever. I used Clorox wipes and that seemed to work too. Overall took about 30-45 minutes to remove the majority and about more than an hour to get it all off completely. To make sure it’s completely off use a flashlight and point it at the screen.
Baby wipes! I believe the Citric Acid chemically reacts with the coatings. Thats what I use. What is very important is not let the liquid seep under the glass or press to hard!
Listerine mouth wash removes it
i would like to try compound car polish to remove the anti glare coating… anyone did try it_
