Privacy monitor hacked from an old LCD Monitor

Step 4: Monitor - done

After cleaning the adhesive, assemble everything back the way it was. Before even making the glasses, you can test the monitor with the polarized film!
Notice how the upper left corner looks clear, because it has the anti-glare film removed. That is the part we are going to use to make the glasses.

how can you remove the anti-glare film? because my image is great when I place the film in front of the screen, but for far it's wozzzy, help please

How did you get rid of the anti-glare film? it'll take months to peel the film off with a scalpel...

If everyone have the same white LCD & same glasses, what will happen?

very good thinking, but can I use a pair of polarized sunglasses instead, would that still works?

It would work, but you have to keep your head at a 45 degree angle.
You can try looking at a regular LCD monitor with your polarized glasses and turn your head. The monitor should go from pitch black to normal. If the polarized film is removed from the screen, it would go from normal to all white :)

I think you mean the polarized film, not the anti-glare film...

No, he meant the upper left corner of the film is clear as opposed to foggy, because the anti-glare film is still over part of the polarized film.
