I picked up a used beolab 2 that has been sitting in a storage for some time. The radiator surfaces (assuming is plastic) seems to have melted a bit and it's very sticky, and if I scrape it gently it'll come off. Is there any way to restore or improve this? Is it safe to use products like goo gone to remove the film? Thanks for your help Login to view image

Beolab 2 radiator rubber melted and sticky

You can use ALCOHOL KETONATUS 90% for this.t solves all the sticky rubber coating but not the thick rubber woofer ring.
Afterwards you can respray it with BLACK PLASTIDIP.
Another option is to buy a vinyl black sticker circle in the correct diameter. Place it over the ugly/damaged/sticky part and you're done. Those stickers can be made by any local print/sticker design shop.
I see some B&O second life dealers use this 'secret' method ;)
