Is the purple on the outside of this container paint (that will eventually get scratched) or a silicone cover?

It isn't paint. The top and bottom are a silicone type material. The middle is metal. I suppose the metal would scratch but so far it has not.

The only material that could potentially be scratched off of this container might be the "Thermos" lettering that you see at the bottom of the container. Other than that, nothing can be scratched off. I have one of these containers for each of my kids. This one is for my middle school child and has worked wonderfully. They keep the beverages very cold. Ice is still present when we clean them out at the end of the day. The other big sell for me is that they don't leak. I won't use any other containers in lunches for fear of soggy sandwiches! Highly recommend.

It is paint and will scratch, but not easily! Only the ones my children use show any wear and tear. This bottle is well worth the investment

It has a plastic overlay. You could chalk paint it or spray paint it, but I don't think regular paint would stick to it.

It is a silicone outer surface. It is sticky compared to the similar outer part that is on my wife's iPhone 5 Defender case. The outer material on my case is also a softer material than that on my wife's.

The color of the metal is black or what I would consider a very dark rubbed bronze. It also has a nice "rubberized" surface on top, so the coffeemaker stays put and there is no surface to scratch. For the price, this was a very good option.

I'm not sure. I do know this is a 2 piece cover. It comes with a black rubber inner cover and then the purple hard cover goes over that. This company may have black too, my friend has a hot pink one, so that leads me to believe there are more than just the purple bling.....:)

I bought the purple one. But my sister has the white one and she said her cover has stayed clean. (Again now this depends on how you use it). If you are going to be in dirt and dust - I would imagine it getting dirty - but it cleans easily.

The cover is made of a rubber-like material. Is somewhat soft, but still firm. It will not slide around and it will not scratch. I use it against the exterior painted fiberglass walls of my RV.

I don't know because I only have 2 weeks using it but for now it's not scratched and it's way better than that cheap polycarbonate plastic container.

There's a silicone interface inside, but the container itself is made of glass and the cover is aluminum

It is a white translucent plastic. I don't know about it being silicone. I hope that answers your question

Aluminum painted black with a bit of texture to it, it's really nice but it does scratch if you are really rough with it.

I have the purple one and although it isn't actually transparent, mine has kind of a zigzag design on the back which is clear

The cover has a rubber padded gasket all around and will not damage the paint.

It has a urethane coating in it. Very durable. The kids have used paint & markers & it has all washed off

It is metal. I loved it when I bought it because I love purple! After awhile the scratches show only if you put it in the light. I really loved it. Bought one for my daughter too!

Sorry, but I can't really answer this one. I bought it and put it into my collection. Because it is a "coating" I never carry it. I stickto non- scratchable finishes for daily carries.
