I notice an issue with my CDX2. The surface layer of the magnetic metal that the puck is placed on is starting to lift. Is this likely to create a future problem and is there a way of treating the issue? It hasn’t effected playing of CDs to date.
Mine did the same. I lifted off any loose bits of plating (?), with sticky tape and/or BluTac. I then - gently - loosened anything left and lifted that off.This is the result:
Still works fine…
PS. Thanks to @suttonc1 for asking. I had not got a Round Tuit…
Correct - it’s just the plating on the magnet ring.
A bit unpleasant on the eye, but if it still works!
If anything, your clamp will grip ever so slightly better.

@NeilS - Sorry , only just saw you reply. That’s pretty much what I thought (and hoped…) - just a cosmetic issue.
I imagine its the ‘nubs’ on the Clamp which slowly wear the plating…
Just there are some powders and a bit worried they will fly everywhere when the mech is working.
So… remove the loose bits…!!
Carefully - gradually - bit by bit (literally…).
Using as little pressure as you can…
Thanks!
Pls post an ‘After’ picture…?
Okay😅 but I will see when I have time for this. But I will post after I finish it
Getting there… Try to get the rest of the ‘lifted’ plating, if you can…
Do you think I should continue?
Hi @Desmond
I would use a vacuum cleaner to suck up any loose debris that you can see, but don’t actually touch the nozzle on the transport - keep a finger or two at the end to stop it latching on. Adjust the suction so it is on a low setting. Be careful !
Thanks for your advice! I will have a try.
