I did it to an old black & white TV once, and the purple splotch I created in one corner of the screen never went away completely afterwards, no matter what angle I dragged a magnet over it. You reverse damage simply by rubbing the magnet over it again.

BigBadSteve posted:That's the "theory". In practice it worked somewhat but not fully. I probably tried to fix it hundreds of times, all up, being an obsessive bastard. Don't put a magnet near a CRT screen if you don't want to severely risk loving it up. Simple. In fact it works perfectly every time.

I left a Sun O))) concert and I thought car alarms were going off around me, but it was just my ears "ringing" because the concert was so loud.
