Bleeding LCD displays

Cause and any amelioration, short of draining the liquid and starting again (for elfin safety in nothing else), and of course unobtanium replacement displays Where I used to work a batch of early large LCD display Philips DVM meters for the engineers. Every now and then , despite warning labels, someone would leave one in direct sunlight (UK version) for a while and the display would become next to useless, permanently. Presumably the LC migrates out of its assigned wells and does not go back in them. Anyone know of a localised heat/cold/pressure treatment or something like that ,at least, won't make matters worse , and may actually improve the splodge a bit?

Some of the bulbous screen monitors in the garage work, but as long as the LCD monitor (AKA TV) holds out, the non-trinitrons are likely to get hit for component harvest before the sonys.

I used to take a tiny triangle file and file a notch in the evacuation seal till it started to hiss, and let it sit. The hissing scared the crap out of people who didn't belong in my shop. :)

Anyone wanting to run for any political office in the US should have to have a DD214, and a honorable discharge.
