They are not as large as you think.
I honestly couldn't tell you how the one above the plunger happened. Only my friend and I live here so no kids etc.
I think sweat took this off because its right where your palms rest. We don't wear rings nor watches.
The other small one was done by my belt. I was cleaning the glass (taking good care of my machine) when I heard metal against metal. I was so bummed. But again, they are not as large as the pics here look.
I don't think I have a choice. My fear of the flake next to plunger is its going to get bigger because its where your palm rests.
I will have to keep a eye on it and make sure it doesn't grow much.
I know its only 2 minor spots, but I honestly do take care of my machine. Its my first new in box. I cover it from the sun even every day, so its kind of like getting a new car and someone scratches your paint 2 weeks in.
Quoted from Darcy:You will see it every time, your friends should not notice it right away.
You hit it right on the head. Wish I could double thumbs up you!
I think I will try the car touch up paint route first. Thanks for the advice.
Quoted from arpman:HAve you tried contacting Jersey Jack to see if he will help you out with the color?
I fear some people will say what are you wining about with 2 little spots, so no, I havent contacted them.
I know Jack is a very nice guy, but I cant justify contacting them for something I may or may not have done.
If either spot grows bigger I will have to take action to control it.
Quoted from Pinchroma:Hi, Sweat isn't the culprit. Those are chips from being hit with something or being put down. So for example you take the lockdown bar off the game and drop it accidentally. The powder itself won't flake away. The bar can be redone, you don't need a new bar.
And DON'T try and buy paint. It won't adhere and won't match and will stick out like a sore thumb.
