Odd GLD-80 Question

[hobsound]

Just purchased a used GLD-80 (original, not Chrome) and am wondering about the black side and front bumpers.
They almost feel sticky to me. Is that normal?
They seem like they would be a dirt and dust magnet, which bugs me. My OCD kicking in.
Thanks for any help.

These parts are available from your distributor if you would like to replace them.
You could also upgrade your GLD with the Chrome model sides and front as well as rotaries if you were so inclined.

It’s a slightly tacky material. Works well to have your arm or wrist on. Maybe doesn’t clean off quite as easy as the metal, but it’s no big deal.

Thanks, I wasn’t sure if it was something with that console specifically.
