Rebuilding an Apple Multiple Scan 20" display

If the problem is just the anti-glare film, that would be awesome! I will try to remove it anyway. Thanks for the link @KURB, that is very useful!
I once removed the antiglare film from an AppleVision 1710 after it had become damaged. I suspect yours will be the same but as the linked article says, it will be obvious once you have the CRT removed from the bezel.

It’s quite good to know you can actually get replacement film of this sort.
 
Thanks for the feedback @croissantking. I read the article and unfortunately, the CRT Database page lists this monitor's glare film as non removable: https://crtdatabase.com/crts/apple/apple-multiple-scan-20-m1283

I had some hope but I guess I am out of luck here. It seems I am back at the point of having to remove the entire glass to fix the issue... Or try to find a replacement tube.

I think you should do your own investigation. That site lists the AppleVision 850 as having a non-removable glare film as well when I know for a fact it is removeable.
