"Gun Metal" Paint on Dell Laptop[edit]

Hey! An example of what I have is the Dell Insprion 15 5570 Grey Coloured laptop. There are sparkles on the paint, and everytime I touch the laptop, the sparkles and paint comes off. I have a casio watch the same colour, and it does the same thing. Is this normal? It's a grey paint job with sparkles on it. つがる Talk to つがる:) 🍁 00:13, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No that isn't "normal". Are you sure they're not fake products? Have you spilled or sprayed anything on them? Some cleaning products could have that effect.--Shantavira|feed me 19:19, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
My Dell and watch is a real one... I never spilled anything on it, and I have only ever used rubbing alchol to clean the chassis when it was soiled. But for the watch, I never used any chemicals on it, but it does the same thing --つがる Talk to つがる:) 🍁 00:30, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
