How do You Degauss the CRT

The CRT has green and purple blotches on the left side. I think degaussing will solve the problem but I've forgotten how to do it.

Yes. The standard startup degauss isn't cutting it.

The degaussing wand can be used and can be found here

I just did some research and you should be careful with the wand, since its much more powerful than the built in one and it can wipe hard drives...

According to this kb article it automatically degausses on startup, though you may want to try with a wand.
