lol, got that part. Were they knurled, or rolled? (The pegs.) Just the top edges coming off where your boot rides? etc. We all know that PC is tougher than painting, but not wear proof. Anodizing is a different method that takes more abuse.

i have not had a come back on something like that but there are many reasons, heres a few. the peg was not prepped right prior to coating. the paint or whatever coating on it wasnt removed before the coating was applied. the heating/cooling process was not dont right. many things man, just have to know how it was done.

how is it rubbing off ? is it flaking off, coming off in big flake chunks, or just showing wear marks. take a pic and post it for me.
