    3D Movies & 3D Glasses

    I bought a Smart LED 3D TV this week which came with 2 pairs of 3D glasses (battery operated). I've also kept the 3D glasses (non battery operated) from a few visits to 3D movies at the theatre and have about 3 pairs. How come these ones 'work' at the movies but not by watching 3D on my TV?

    Removing Window Tinting

    One of my car windows has a rough, crackly surface - I can scrape the stuff off. I'm assuming it's the window tinting. It looks awful and I want to remove it. Is there a solvent that will do this? My friend has a similar problem with a sheet of tinted film on one of her bedroom windows that...
