A TV screen cover should be bought when buying a new television because, ideally, you want the screen protected right from the beginning. The longer you leave it, the bigger the risk that you’re taking. You might avoid an accident for years but someday (especially if you have kids) your luck will change.If you have a flat panel LCD TV, try this simple test – press on the television screen with one of your fingers but make sure you press it gently. You will notice that lots of different colors appear as the picture distorts under you finger. If you just a touch of a finger can do that, imagine what anything with force would do.This shows just how delicate these television screens are and how cautious you need to be in order to get the right protection for your TV set. It’s going to be really frustrating if you have to learn this simple lesson after the damaging occurring and you being stuck without a TV.How does a TV screen cover work? The best TV screen covers on the market are made of acrylic and at least a 1/4″ thick. There are thinner covers out there but they don’t provide the proper screen protection. When an object strikes the TV screen cover, which is kept a 1/4″ off the surface of the TV by felt spacers, the cover flexes, and in doing so absorbs the impact.While almost everyone can recognize the importance of protecting their significant electronic investment, they are sometimes concerned regarding the affect a screen cover has on the picture quality. Some people even think that using a TV screen cover will spoil the picture quality completely. Not so! As long as the screen cover is made by a company known for producing a quality product, like TV Armor, there won’t be any loss of picture quality at all. That’s right, you will get exactly the same picture quality as you get without using a TV screen cover.
