Do not choose these radios that have special 'sticky'coating

“Do not choose these radios that have special...”

Very poor radio casing. The main problems with some modern radios is the manufacturers have chosen to coat them with a special surface. initially this feels nice to touch, rather matt. However after time this coating deteriorates leaving a very sticky surface. This gets worse if you try to clean with soap and water or any other cleaning material. The only reason manufacturers can possible have fro this is so that the item becomes useless to the owner forcing them to buy another item. I note that many other electrical items have this surface now applied to them, eg, electric razors, computers and kitchen items. My advice is if you pick up an item in the shop and it feels matt - AVOID it. Also be very careful buying online as you will not know if it has this surface. Nice try manufacturers but we are onto you. Personally I do not buy anymore goods from manufacturers such as pure if they have tried these tricks.
