Home Theater Hifi Looks at Screen Goo
I’d written off the possibility of getting a projector because in my house anything that requires putting holes in the walls or ceilings is off-limits. So it’s really cool to find out that products like Screen Goo exist – now I just need to convince the wife 🙂
Screen Goo is a specially formulated line of acrylic paint products designed specifically for the video projection industry. It allows anyone to transform any smooth paintable surface into a high performance projection screen. Screen Goo paint products are ideal for home theater, commercial, educational or industrial front or rear (2D or 3D) projection applications. It’s inexpensive and costs a fraction of what a fixed mounted screen can cost. It can be painted into any size/shape screen and most applications can be done by users without any special tools or skills, such as me.
It’s funny when a company
It’s funny when a company sells what the DIY people have been doing for years… There is a whole forum dedicated to painting screens over at avsforum. The results using a roller are not going to be near what they would be with sprayer. I used silver fire on my screen (~$50 in paint) with great results.
While I love my 110″ 1080p
While I love my 110″ 1080p projection and it has a great picture trust me Andy it doesn’t hold a candle to that vt25 you have in picture quality and would cost an arm and a leg to get a projector that would even come close.
i think it’s great that
i think it’s great that ScreenGoo is finally getting some public exposure. They’ve been around for a while and I’ve always heard nothing but good things about them back in my CEDIA days. Still haven’t seen one in person though, alas. Damn renting apt!
Just remember, with
Just remember, with projection: Turn off all your lights, close all your blinds, turn off all your devices, and look at the screen. That’s the deepest black you’ll ever get.
