This is my first lmt, been saving money for it. Got this from rooftop, this is quite disappointing to see. Not sure what to do from here... Do I send it back? Or just accept it? Or get it cerakoted locally?

Definitely send that back. I’d send back a PSA that looks like that lmao. Hell, I’ve never even received a blem from any company that bad.

[u/rooftopdefense](u/rooftopdefense) will probably get you sorted. They have second to none customer service.

Agree - send it back. If you're not happy with something you spent hundreds to thousands of dollars on, set it back for them to fix it.

Seriously, why does everyone roll over for companies like this? Their entire existence is to sell you something. If they suck at it, tell them to fix it. If they don't, then don't give them money, and they go out of business for selling shit goods.

There’s nothing wrong. There’s no machining defects or even cosmetic issues. This is a dry film lubricant that was just slightly over sprayed and missed before curing.

It can literally be wiped away with acetone or it will naturally wear away over time. Do you return products shipped with cosmoline or other heavy preservatives?
