|
|
Hi all,
Currently have a barco gr 808s with colored glycol in the red and green crt.
Today buy a set of hd8 color corected lenses and need clean the colored glycon and put the clear glycol again.
How clean the chamber to put the clear glycol, wather, alcohol, or?
Thanks!
Rubén

The HD-8's you bought... are they color corrected or color filtered? If just color corrected, you certainly won't want to replace your colored glycol with clear.
I'm not sure I've ever seen color-filtered HD-8's before. Note, I'm not saying they don't exist, I just don't recall seeing them before.

EDIT - There are lots of threads on cleaning coolant chambers if you need to do that. Search glycol, fungus, clean, etc.

Ooookayyy. Look through the red lens. Does the world look red? If yes, you need clear glycol. Look through the green lens. Does the world look green? If yes, you need clear glycol. Not rocket science, here, you can't double up on the color filtering, either the lens or the glycol, but not both.

I've used cheesecloth on car coolant glycol with good sucess. Used a few layer's.
Coffe filter's didn't work, tried that too.

Hi guys,
If anyone need the colored glycol I send you free only shiping charges.
I am not sure if is equal to the original, the red is perfect, the green a bit soft, based on pictures.
