I like this idea, thanks for sharing. I might do the same for my HP 264x screens.

We bought a thin sheet of Lexan at Home Depot, put the outer glass on a cookie sheet with the outside surface down, put the sheet of Lexan on top, and put it in an oven. When the temperature hit 420F (if I remember correctly) the Lexan softened and conformed to the inside of the glass. We trimmed the Lexan to size, reassembled the Lexan and glass to the front of the CRT, and glued the steel mounting band in place. It looks great, and is probably a lot safer than just leaving the PVA out. -- Michael Thompson
