Matte screens are better for when there will be bright lights behind the user because it will cut back on glare, but without this problem glossy screens show a more vibrant picture.

Is a matte or glossy screen better on HDTV?

Both screens are good. The glossy worked best for me. Glare was never an issue for. If video is not your primary use of computer, and you are in extreme lighting situations all of the time, then the matte is a good choice.

What is the difference between Matt and glossy computer LCD screens?

"Glossy and matte screens are absolutely interchangeable and it's just the type of the screen surface. Glossy screens use an optical coating to reduce the amount of external light reflecting from the surface without affecting light emanating from the screen. Their shiny surfaces still reflect more light than matte displays, but are less reflective than an uncoated glossy display would be; reflections of external light sources are not diffused by glossy displays, so certain lighting conditions tend to favor a traditional, anti-glare screen. In controlled environments, such as darkened rooms, or rooms where all light sources are diffused, a glossy display may be more enjoyable for the viewer..."

How do you make glossy paint flat?

Say good bye to that glossy look with a spray can. Some folks use clear, matte finish paint. You can see right through it to the color of the original finish, but the matte finish breaks up the "smoothness" and kicks that glossy look to the curb. Just about any hardware store will have it, and so will the big box outfits.
