The before and after on my garage projector screen blew me away
I hung a cheap white bedsheet in my garage like 6 months ago just to test out my old Optoma projector. It looked okay but the creases and wrinkles drove me nuts, plus the light bleed was terrible. Last week I finally spent $35 on a roll of blackout cloth from the fabric store and built a simple wooden frame with some 1x2s from Home Depot. The difference is honestly insane, the blacks are way deeper and the picture is so much sharper now. Has anyone else made the switch from a sheet to a real screen and noticed a huge jump in quality?

Gotta admit I'm skeptical, are we really talking about a massive upgrade between a bedsheet and a $35 piece of fabric? Feels like the law of diminishing returns kicks in pretty quick with most projector setups.

The difference is WAY bigger than you'd think. A proper screen actually reflects light evenly instead of soaking it up like a sheet, so your image gets a LOT brighter and more detailed without cranking the contrast.
