Does anyone have any experience with ^these types of TVs. Toshiba H6H84

I have burns from Halo 1 and want to get rid of them.

I have heard of doing a "white wash", where one projects a purely white image for hours and it essentially burns all the phosphorus in the TV, making the appearance of no burns.

I don’t want to make it worse, any info would be great.

Thank you.

A "white wash" like you describe would only further darken the already burned phosphors. Even if you were to somehow display an exact inverted image of Halo at 100% white, screen blooming would shift the image slightly making correction with this method all but impossible. The only phosphor burn fix I know of is replacement.
