I must apologize to all "Gonners" regarding this tweak!
I have been contacted by two people ( outside Audiogon ) who have questioned the need ( or safety ) of removing the lacquer from the sub platter and the long term effects of Z-MAX. While I have not experienced any ill effects from the tweak, I don't know the answers either, so I would urge all Walker owners to contact their dealer or Walker Audio directly before trying the tweak!
The greatest effect did seem to be from lowering the platter pressure (and there is no danger in that)
Again, I apologize for any confusion but also don't want to take any chances.
