White matte projection screens are made from a woven material backing with a
laminated surface.  They are made strong so there is no need to worry about
tearing or easy damage.  They can be hung up when in use and when not being
used can be rolled up and stored.  Since white matte projection screens are
very popular they come in a wide variety of mounting styles, which means a
person can find the style that works best for the setting in which they will
be using the screen.  This helps prevent unnecessary handling and exposure
of the screen which can cause damage.

While there are a variety of styles of white matte projections screens they
are all handled the same way.  They should be stored away when not in use,
but for screens that are going to be used often they can be left on display
with little worry over damage.  It is always best to avoid letting people
touch the screen, though, as this would mean frequent cleaning to remove
fingerprints that can effect the images.

Caring for Glass Beaded Projection Screens

Wednesday, November 1st, 2006

Glass beaded projection screens are one of the types of projection screens
that are not as popular.  These screens are best for special circumstances.
They produce bright images that have a very real-life look to them, however,
the viewing surface is limited and sometimes the picture can appear too
bright, losing darker colors.  The design of a glass beaded projection
screen is what makes caring for it a little tricky.

Glass beaded projection screens are made of tiny glass beads embedded in a
coating on a screen backing.  It is the tiny beads that allow the screen to
produce such bright and bold images because they reflect the light much
better than a flat screen type.  The glass beads are the reason, though,
that this type of projection screen needs special care.

A glass beaded projection screen is usually displayed flat and not rolled or
folded.  This makes it very easy for damage to occur.  A displayed screen
can easily be knocked down or bumped into, which can result in tearing or
other damage.  The screen should be kept in an area where it will not be in
contact with people.  It should also be covered or stored somewhere where
dust will not gather on it.

Being sure to protect a glass beaded projection screen from damage is the
most important part of caring for one.  This type of projection screen can
be easily damage, both because it is usually stored flat and because of its
construction.  These screens are an investment and a person should practice
good screen care in order to protect their investment.
