Default Anyone know where you can buy a dust cover for a television.

I have looked high and low on the internet including various google and ebay searches but i can`t find television dust covers anywhere, the only ones i could find were in dollars in the USA.

Basically i have a 50 inch plasma on a ped and i want a dust cover for it for when i go away on things like holidays etc.

Anyone seem them, don`t say use a bin bag or you can borrow one of my condoms as i have a big **** etc lol

Surely somewhere in the UK sells these sort of things, they would be simple to prduce with a pvc outside and microfibre on the inside.

Maybe i have found an oppertunity in the uk market for someone to produce them if they are not already available.

Yeh, so when i go on holiday its something convenient to slip over the tv to stop it getting clogged up with a few weeks dust.

Dust can easily get into the rear cooling vent holes and you don`t want that all over a circuit boards and components.

Dust is primarily small human skin flakes, so if you aren't there you aren't going to really get a significant build up

When you go on holibobs for a fortnight you don't get home and get the Mr Sheen out, it's as you left it before you went...

The house will be more dusty while you're in it, unless building work is going on and do you clean your TV every two weeks whilst there?

I don't think i've cleaned the rear of the tv ever, it's been on the wall for over 3 years and it's fine.

I seriously doubt there's any point in being so ****.

Your talking garbage mate, next you will be saying that office people who are instructed by their companies to put dust covers on their monitors before they leave of an evening are all wrong to do so because remember the office will be as they left it the night before according to your theory

Borat, the reason behind dust covers in the evening in an office is because the dust is in movement through the air from the movement of bodies in the office. when everyone leaves, the dust settles. hence dust covers in the evening

An office... putting dust covers on monitors seriously BDAS, there's a BIG difference between an office enironment and your feckin home....

In light of your lack of common sense I suggest that you also consider wrapping your head in tin foil to keep those alien radio waves at bay

dust is primarily 'dead skin'

Dust is meant to be on circuit boards etc

I remember a few years ago we had a PC that hadn't been switched off for 10 years, nobody dared to incase it wouldn't come back on, but we had to to change the network card

I opened the lid and there was a dust carpet 2 inches thick, I lifted it out in one piece, changed the network card, and it powered back on and still works to this day
