I can confirm that removing the rubber was a right pain. Now that I look at that tool, it appears that it would not scratch the underside of the platter. Would that be correct?

Actually it can scratch it but not significantly... more or less the same amount of scratching as with the sand paper or steel sponge

Here is my test platter

I reinstalled my Shelter 501 MK2 yesterday, so I am ready for some more a/b comparisons for the dynamat.

That looks really interesting. I can see now that you have some dynamat inside the magnet assembly, but not on the magnet. I may give that a go too. I'm looking forward to your 'before and after'.
PS what is that colossus under the platter?

There is also dynamat under the magnet on the part of the platter around the hole.
The speaker is a Tannoy TurnburryNot really that a colossus...

Cheers, Alan. But, bloody hell, I should hope you could get it in lesser quantities, as I wouldn’t be shelling out £140 to try it! All I wanted was a couple of wee strips….

I was looking at a review of an item earlier today and they had used this material to deaden the case so seems there are more uses than just under platters
