Hey everyone, I recently purchased XGIMI H1 projector after doing a lot of research. I've been using it for more than a month by projecting on a white wall and it looked awesome! Crisp 1080 projector!
I thought it would look even better on a fixed frame screen! So I hired a carpenter, got a 100-inch diagonal frame done, bought 4-way stretchable white spandex material, stretched and fixed it to the frame. It looked like this!

The frame looked amazing but the projected image on the screen is not as good as the wall. It looked a bit washed out and it is not crisp anymore. It looks like a 720p projector now! It has some kind of dreamy glow effect now. I think the white color light is being spread out on the screen. Colors are not as clear on the wall.
Also, The screen looks a bit transparent and light is being projected onto wall behind the screen a bit.
I'm planning to use a coat of white paint or grey paint on the spandex screen? Will it help me fix it?
Has anyone experienced this issue with white screens? Please help me fix this.
Here's a comparison between wall and screen.

The difference is not clearly visible in the captured photos but there's a clear difference in real.
