High Contrast Projector Screen Paint Reviews

Mcgrath Orbut

Very good resolution for gaming. It really created higher contrast levels but I think a powerful projector and low light are important. It was easy enough to apply, and perfect for our home theater wall.

Energy Apps - Wisonsin

Never would have thought of painting a projector screen, but bought the high contrast paint to use in the office where we have our gaming setup. Didn’t want to load in a big screen on top of everything else in there. Absolutely love the new screen with our laser projector. Really great picture with such good visual depth and contrast once you dim or turn off the lights.

Tech7 AV Inc

Really ups the contrast levels on movies compared to our old white screen. It creates a richer image quality for a more immersive viewing experience. You definitely need to pair it with a projector that has higher lumens to get the most out of the new screen.

FAQ's

Low ambient lighting is recommended to achieve the best performance. The less ambient light the better.

High Contrast Projector Screen Pain is ideal for movies, gaming, home cinema screens, or high-contrast projection needs where the projector has a minimum lumen of 1500 and will be used in low ambient light.

The Sound Absorption Coefficient (SAC) indicates how effectively a material absorbs sound energy when sound waves pass through it. For our evaluation, we assessed the SAC of a standard 12mm gypsum board, a widely used building material.

The SAC varies depending on the frequency of the sound waves because different frequencies have different wavelengths, which interact uniquely with the material. As a result, SAC values are presented as a range, reflecting how they change with varying frequencies. During our testing, we recorded the following results:

Unpainted Board α = 0.04-0.07
Painted Board α = 0.04-0.07

The provided values apply to both unpainted and painted 12mm gypsum boards. The α values, ranging from 0.04 to 0.07 for both types, represent the SAC range for these materials. It indicates that when sound waves pass through a 12mm gypsum board, a portion of the sound energy is absorbed, with absorption levels varying between 0.04 and 0.07 depending on the sound wave frequency. Moreover, the consistency of these values for painted boards demonstrates that the paints used are acoustically transparent, causing no change in the board's performance.

3D projectors operate by projecting two slightly varied images that overlap on the screen. These images pass through optical filters that polarize the light differently for each projection. When viewed with specialized 3D glasses, each lens blocks one image, allowing your left eye to see one image and your right eye to see the other.

When using a 3D projector, it’s crucial to ensure the projection screen doesn’t change the light’s polarity. All our paint products are designed to be "polarity preserving," guaranteeing that the displayed image maintains its intended polarity and delivers the complete 3D effect.

Blended projections are a widely favored technique for crafting immersive and dynamic visual displays in applications like art installations, theaters, and large-scale presentations. Achieving seamless and unified projections depends heavily on the quality of the projection surface. Our projection screen paint provides the perfect solution for blending multiple projections on a single surface. Its advanced formulation is tailored to support the blending process, ensuring exceptional performance and results.

Blending projections demand accurate color, consistent brightness, and superior light diffusion to create smooth transitions between images. Our projection screen paint is designed to excel in these areas, ensuring a unified and engaging display experience.

For large-scale screens, our projection screen paint replaces bulky and expensive physical screens, offering a versatile and budget-friendly alternative. Convert any surface into an immersive display where multiple projections integrate to leave a lasting impression on your audience.
