yeah those LCD …
yeah those LCD panels are a bugger to get apart without breaking them. i’ll keep my eyes out for a good glass fridge door in the scrap yard, provided they don’t break it with the machine :/

I’ll check my old work too to see if they have some old stock black and white powdered masterbatches, their pretty much pure carbon and TiO2

yeah im after fridge doors from the shop type-they have a ITO coating to stop frosting and allow the customer to see inside-you would be better placed to find this in your scrapping,so keep your eyes peeled-thats a lot more surface area and alot easier to get apart than a LCD panel.
the.
yeah i spose the carbon and the TiO2 could be sprayed on-but the ITO is done with electron sputtering methods….

Amazing! good idea using the plant matter as a source of organic dye!.

I’ve got dozens of old laptops with TFT LCD’s in them, would they behave the same or would it have to be an older style LCD like on a photocopier panel?

I guess for a bigger panel you could apply most coatings with a spray gun? like the TiO2 and carbon?

plexigas is no good-you need a tin oxide layer on the glass-that is found in LCD panels and see thru fridge doors.
