With all this talk about clear coat etc I decided to inspect my pin...Have a SW Premium (NIB with about 2700 plays) with a very very small (what appears to be) clear separation near a metal ball guide. Probably from various things the point of contact on the edge of the guide, torque of the lock nut for the guide...etc...
I ran my finger over it and it feels smooth, so i just cleaned it, put a very small piece of mylar over it, and loosened and then re tightened (but only just enough) the lock nut near the guide. Should I be doing more, and is this just normal wear and tear?
