How I fixed repaired my Akai MPC 2000 brown burnt original LCD screen by replacing polarizer film

I am the original owner since brand new.

My screen has had the burnt appearance for about three years.

Since I had visibility at an angle, I didn’t attempt to repair or replace it.

Finally I got tired of reading the screen at an angle. So I was about to buy one of those brand new aftermarket blue screens from mpcstuff. But according to their website, their screens have a glitch for all 8 output-installed MPC 2000 “classic” models (not 2000XL models).

Since my MPC 2000 “classic” has the 8 outputs, I decided to repair the burnt screen by replacing the polarizer film.

Tools used for repair:

Goo Gone (adhesive remover)
Blade (to separate polarizer film from LCD and to scrape away burnt “glue” adhesive.

Rubbing alcohol to clean off all adhesive residue (after successfully removing all old adhesive)

Brand new high temperature polarizer film off eBay (amazon, etc) for less that $10

This job took no longer than 40 minutes:

2 minutes disassembly
35 minutes of scraping away old adhesive
5 seconds for polarizer film installation
2 minutes reassembly
