It is best not to get the projector screen wet. Here are some reasons and precautions:
1. The screen material may be damaged
The surface of most projector screens is made of special materials to enhance reflection and image quality. If the screen gets wet, it may cause the surface material to deform, fade or lose function.
2. Water stains and stains are difficult to clean
Even after the screen is wiped dry, water stains may leave marks and affect the image quality. Especially electrostatic screens or fiberglass screens are prone to attracting dust and forming water stains.
3. Mildew or damage
If the screen remains wet for a long time, it may cause mildew, especially in a humid environment. This may affect the life of the screen and the picture quality.
How to clean the projection screen correctly?
If cleaning is required, you can refer to the following steps:
Use a dry cloth: Gently wipe the surface of the screen with a soft, lint-free dry cloth (such as a microfiber cloth).
Slightly wet: If there are stubborn stains, you can gently wipe it with a slightly damp cloth (water or neutral cleaning liquid, never use alcohol or strong acid or alkali cleaners). Wipe dry with a dry cloth immediately afterwards.
Avoid excessive water use: Do not spray water directly or use a damp cloth, as moisture may seep into the edges of the screen or other parts.
Avoid strong wiping: Excessive force can damage the screen surface.
What should I do if the screen is already wet?
Immediately absorb the moisture with a dry soft cloth or paper towel.
Let the screen dry naturally in a dry and ventilated environment, avoid exposure to the sun or hot air.
