[QUOTE="D3v1L80Y, post: 817929, member: 2960"] While it isn't common, it does happen. However, it's not a defect of the machine or a result of "cheap" materials used in the machine's production. The reason this happens and why the result differs greatly in each case, is dependent on different people's personal body chemistry. While it is extremely rare, some people's natural skin oils are slightly more corrosive than others, causing the finish to chip, peel or scratch off. Here are a few threads from the past where it has happened to others.
