Step 23Cleaning the Projector

Cleaning the Projector
 
After some time using the projector you may see that there is small marks or dust on the projected image. That is normal, the LCD could get some dust or something that needs to be cleaned from time to time (not very often though)

First take the lid off your projector. Here is a video of how to do it if you have a enclosure like mine.




To clean the projector you could use a blower cleaner. I use this blower that is to clean my camera. It only takes a minute.

what if you run the power supply to your car? i have seen people hook up projectors to their cars, and make a drive-in movie
