1. My house came with an electric Da-Lite screen that the previous owner installed. When I run my hand across it, it feels a little sticky (insert masturbation joke here). It is an overall consistency to the material that I thought might be from going years without being cleaned. But when I went to wash it with warm water and a little dish soap it resulted in some streaking. I hesitate to really scrub the thing if there is some kind of special home theater kryptonite coating that I am wiping off and thus ruining the screen. Any thoughts?

2. If I have indeed fuxored the screen up by washing it, then I was thinking of just using some home theater paint on the wall behind the screen (see my setup pic below). Any thoughts on this paint and if it is a decent alternative to a Da-lite screen.

thanks in advance for your input, masturbation jokes and overall patience with a home theater n00b.

The streaking could be caused by not cleaning the screen completely, you also should rinse it off with a clean sponge because the soap will streak.

looks like a 80 - 90 " screen. replace it with a stewart.

Look closely at the top right and top left. Mesh in the cabinet doors. Center channel and sub in the front behind mesh panels as well. Nothing great - Paradigms all around with a DCM sub.

I already looked on the back and haven't been able to get a part number or material. The way its mounted I would have to take the thing down to look behind the housing.Just the DaLite logo is on the screen itself. I did try the site before posting here. Just too many versions of their site and when I found one that looked right, they only had downloadable spec sheets and product info. Nothing on cleaning. Thanks though.

I was just being a smart ass about the speakers, comes from too much time on AWOT.....


not so much about the screen though. what size is that screen?

tree fiddy. AND x=19
