Not sure why all the fuss about the Christie wheels. Give the Wolk wheels a try! You'll have alot better luck. They are a black rubber instead.

Mark do you have any more info on those drive wheels. Maybe a part number, distributor or web site. I want to pass this info on to my tech so we can give them a shot.

Are problems are still persisting but not as bad as before. We lubricated the axle's on the platters and re timed them and this has helped. But the problem still lingers.

To get the gooey mess of the platter ive been using GOO GONE and this seems to work pretty well.

Goo Gone is a great cleaner. But after what I've seen it do to disolve corrosion off of theatre seat bolts, I'd almost be scared to use it on vital rubber parts. (Such as platter tires)

Film-Guard directions:
1.) Lather
2.) Rinse
3.) Repeat

Try here Or get the number off the web site and give Tony or Don a call. We have had them in the field for quite a while, and so far so good.
