My blue has a couple of wrinkles. I thought at first it was a reaction to the oil fom the leather case. The surface of the blue looked like a layer of oil. I avoided touching any part of it except when I plugged in the USB to charge it. It received the first wrinkle. I then gently wiped the face with a microfiber cloth and got the oil residue off. I have a small wrinkle that seems to be growing, 3/16" this morning, 3/8" this evening.

But NO peeling and no other places is it wrinkling.

I assume the paint did not get cured properly due to everyone, MR members included, urging a rush job. So long as the mars are small, they will be no worse than what I will put on it in years of use.

If they get worse, I'll contact ASTAK.

PS I'm waiting for Griffonwings response to my "Blue Wrinkles"
