I have a glow or a shadow around everything I watch...I tried the converse blue but i dont know if i did it right bc it didnt work...how can I fix that?

Mine looks exactly like the photo before the coolant was added...with the exception of Ive noticed a lot of red color on my screen esp in peoples faces etc...would that also be due to the coolant??

CRT Fluid is Cloudy

Projection TV tubes have a liquid coolant that is used to keep them from overheating. After many years the coolant in the blue and green tubes will become cloudy and cause the screen to look dull, red/orange, etc. You may even see halos around images.

Picture of a set that needs the fluid changed. Notice how dull the colors are and how white the screen looks. The screen may also look red, orange, dull, etc.



TV set after fluid change. Notice how bright the colors are now. Everthing looks crisp and sharp again.



Solution #2


What you will need to do is replace the coolant and clean the crt. You can get a repair kit from www.TvRepairKits.com that includes replacement coolant, photos. instructions, etc.

Replace the CRT coolant if the glow is blue replace the coolant in the blue CRT.
