I have been thinking about getting a Lexerd - Standard Horizon CP180i TrueVue Anti-glare Fish Finder Radar Screen Protector for my sounder. Lots of times it gets salt crystals on it, and I sometimes wipe it without thinking, and it gets a cloudy film on the screen. It is o.k. when I wipe it again with a damp cloth with freshwater on it, but it must leave scratches.
The protectors are $US20 each plus postage, but if anyone else wants one, then hopefully the shipping cost will not change by much. Any interest or opinions?

I leave it till i get home and rinse it off with fresh water.{same as you would your reels, just a very light spray} and it has not scratched yet

I blast mine with the Gernie

no, can't say i would use a gurney, but they are supposed to be water proof and i have had no trouble cleaning mine as described above.

Paul

I wasn't joe king

I actually do hit the whole dash with the gernie from a distance so electronics only cop a fine mist

yeas I do too - when I get home. It is just when it gets covered in salt during fishing and gets hard to see. Just saves the screen getting abraded. I amm getting one anyhow, just thought if anyone else wanted one I would include it in the order.

may be you need to get a poly in stead of the tin thing that spreads sale every were

No salt = No cleaning

mate uou can buy that clear plastic stuff in sheets {dont know the name }that statically sticks to things like that ,and its fairly cheap too ,,,jas

yep it's just ordinary clear acrylic same stuff used on sounder screens any perspex/plastics shop has it

Windex if glass or VUPLEX if plastic !!!

VUPLEX = clean and polishes plastic !!!! I sware by it do not use it on glass !!!!!!

i know what would be perfect for you old fulla's ,go to a newsagent and buy a plastic magnifiying screen ,cut it too fit and you can kill 2 birds with 1 stone ,,,jas

Thanks for the advice, you cheeky young pup.

no worries ol fulla,,jas

Why not just buy a roll of gladwrap and put it on the sounder radio etc and at end of the day just peel it off and presto back to no salt and no scratching.

Hmmmm. O.K. I get the message. Most people have film protectors on their phones and camera monitors. I would think that they get less potential scratches and hazing then a sounder screen would, but each to their own. I like a nice bright screen to look at, not a cloudy scratched one. Like the glad wrap idea though. Maybe I could wrap my sandwiches onto the side of the sounder at the same time......

Ewe can also get a can of black spray paint & give the screen a good 2 coats

hay mate, the glad wrap will work, but i say why worry you know were my radio is mounted and it cops a s^^t load of salt water and still it work's fine, and as for the sandwiches, make tomato ones just don't put to much salt on them hmmmmmmm egg ones will work as well
