Manual Projection Screen: Choose your Size Carefully

Monday, October 16th, 2006

When buying a manual projection screen there are many things that you need to take into consideration.  But one of the most important decisions when it comes to buying a manual projection screen is what size you need.  To go along with this, you also need to make a determination as to what size will fit best with your current set up.

A manual projection screen comes in a variety of different sizes so you should always be able to find something that suits your needs.  Before you make and purchase, be sure that you measure your room and make sure that the size you are interested in will work out nicely.  If you have a larger manual projection screen in a small room you are going to smother your audience.  And on the other side of things if your manual projection screen is too small in a large conference room it will not be worth using.  For this reason you must make sure that you do your homework as far as size is concerned.

If you are not sure which size manual projection screen will work best for you ask the manufacturer or reseller before making a purchase.  They will be able to give you a good idea as to what will work best if you can simply tell them what size room you will be using.

Overall, the size of a manual projection screen is one decision that is very important.  Make sure that you take this into consideration before you make any buying decision.

The good thing is that keeping high grain screens clean is easy to do.  In addition to being able to clean high grain screens with simple dishwashing detergent and water, you may also want to test out ARMOR ALL Multi-Purpose Cleaner.  This is a great option if you are looking to keep your high grain screens clean.  Just remember to not go overboard and follow the directions that are listed on the bottle.

Additionally, never clean your high grain screens with anything that contains wax or abrasives.  Both of these can be damaging to high grain screens.  Wax can leave behind a coat that will distort images that are displayed on the screen.  In turn, any presentations that you give will come off as low quality.
