Extra protective film,

you didn't even know about

The MaxiColor 850C (APT 850C) display usually comes with 2 protective films. The first protective film is on the display upon delivery. It is usually very scratched and we remove it right away.

However, few people know that under the first foil there is another one 😲. It is so glued to the display that it is practically invisible. Most people, even after long use, are not aware that it is there and can be taken off. Once we remove the second foil, we will get rid of the micro scratches that are usually hardly visible. In fact, they only become visible most in the sun, at the right angle.

Tip: some of our customers do not remove the second film, only because of additional protection. In the event that it is heavily worn and the scratches begin to bother a lot, then they will remove it.
