we've got the diffusion film too, it sounds like you are worried about ruining it if you peel off the polarization film

so, in case thats the issue: http://store.kitsch-bent.com/product/backlighting-film

I recently bought a V5 from Nonfinite. For whatever reason he only had inverted, but he did include a spare polarizing screen because he knew I wanted it non-inverted.

I figured I was supposed to peel off the already affixed, inverted polarizer but I didn't want to f%#$ it up so I just left it as inverted. (I think you should be able to peel off the polarizer and your diffusion material should remain just fine, you would just need a new polarizing screen).

So long story short, I have an extra polarizing screen. I might put it up for sale on eBay for a couple bucks. Places sell them too... Check out a few of my faves: ASMRetro, Nonfinite, or Kitschbent! They all sell these polarizer screens.

Removing polarizer from backlight

2014-04-01T20:19:03Z

Im a dingus and I accidentally bought an "inverted" V5 backlight but I don't want it to be inverted. Trouble is that the polarizer is attached directly to the diffusion material so I can't really get it off without getting new diffusion material (I don't know where to buy this lol). Does anybody have any ideas on what to do other than just buying a new backlight?

Thanks!
