i noticed a purple blob on the right hand bottom corner of my sony kv32ls35
a wile ago so my mums otherhalf came round a used what can only be described as a mains powerd dildo he waved it all over the screen and the purple patch has disappered but the picture looks better and colours more vibrante
alot of tvs do not have a deguasse button on them im just wondering if demagnitising is something that we need to do with our tvs straight out of the box?
