The "Lequa Guard" protects the LCD TV screen, which is vulnerable to external impacts, and reduces reflections on the screen through an anti-reflective coating (AR coat). It features two types of coatings: a hard coat that enhances the hardness of the protective panel on both sides to prevent scratches, and an anti-reflective film that prevents reflections from lighting. Unlike the existing non-glare treatment, which creates fine unevenness on the surface to reduce reflections, this panel uses a thin film coating without fine unevenness, ensuring that the quality of high-definition images is not compromised. 【Features】 - Prevents deterioration of image quality with the anti-reflective film (AR coat) - Simple installation method that does not compromise the design of the TV - Consideration for safety, securely fixed to the LCD TV, and easy to install - Equipped with an anti-static function that reduces dust adhesion due to static electricity The "Wide Guard" is a type of product for 65-inch TVs that does not have an anti-reflective film (AR coat) or anti-static function. The "Display Guard" is available in five sizes for 32 to 65-inch TVs and does not have an anti-reflective film (AR coat), hard coat, or anti-static function.
