I guess I haven't heard or seen of the paint issue. I use mine pretty often and I love it, but I wrap the top and bottom with cling wrap and also use the patty paper so I don't have to clean it. The times I have cleaned it I did it in the sink only, I'm not sure what the dishwasher would do.

Never had an issue, not sure what paint problem there is... We use patty paper which helps with clean up and sticking.

I did not have any issues. I did need to move the decals around to get the right fit. Sorry to hear that you are having issues. It is a fun rocket

I do not know what kind of paint is on it. Maybe you could talk with the manufacturer...Sorry

All I can say is that mine was and is working. Upon arrival the painter appeared in used condition and was very oily from the paint. It did take some messing with to finally work but haven't had any problems since. I've painted my whole house and garage. Hope this helps!

Not very reliable, sorry, the painting arrived with wet paint and stuck to the bubble wrap it was covered in. The colors are correct so the white is really white but we had a lot of marks and scratches in the red and yellow tones we had to repair ourselves.

Sorry, this item will come unpainted from factory. You will have to take it to a body shop to have it painted. Thanks.

I have had mine for 15 mos and have not had any paint peeling or any other problems with mine. Is there a guarantee on them?

No it is not treated. I stained mine and it has been problem free almost two years.

I am sorry you are experiencing this issue; mine has a similar defect too by the serrations. I decided not to do anything with it. Any touch up will make it look worse - trust me. If you do a little research, you will see that some have removed the paint completely, and then used some polishing paste - the result is amazing; a high gloss stainless steel look! Capelos, on You-tube has a video reviewing this gun, and at the end shows how it looks without the paint! You can remove the paint from the slide and barrel only, for a two-tone look, or remove it from the frame, as well, for a complete stainless steel look! If you read my full review you will see that I had recommended to the manufacturer to offer it "blued" or, better yet parkerized! I hope this helps. Good luck.

That sounds like a flaw. I have used mine for well over a year and have never experienced paint problems.

Yes - I painted mine and it took paint well. i lightly sanded it - just roughed it up a bit - and painted it with 2 coats of paint. That was almost 4 years ago & it still looks great.

I have never had an issue with the paint--mine is even. The only part that appears painted is the blackish background behind the lion, and the whole piece has a sort of antique finish to it. I've had mine for more than 4 years and have had no issues with regular wear. Hope this helps!

The product dries to its own color. (I don't remember how long it took to dry.) I knew ahead of time that I'd need to paint over the Rust Reformer. I had a large paint flake that I took to the paint store to get new paint that was color matched. That way, I was able to cover the bare spots, as well as the places the brush had smeared. Because I was able to get matching paint, the whole repair looks seamless. You could try getting those color swatches from different brands of paint, if you can't get a paint sample from your item. You might get lucky and find something that's a close match. The product dries to its own color. (I don't remember how long it took to dry.)

I had it painted at the local Maaco. Cost me $50, and they used the manufacturer paint, so it matched perfectly.

ha...funny you should ask. I painted my truck recently. first time turned out perfect. went back to touch it up and screwed it up. painted again and messed it up, however, doesn't look too bad. my mistake was not following the mixing directions on the paint. I followed the directions on the sprayer. I have entire truck with the orange peel effect. I kinda like it. good luck

The black paint on the center of the toys chest... the "Gru Symbol" rubs off with continued use. I don't know if it's improved or not because the paint is still rubbed off mine.

Yes the paint has to be mixed. That wasn't a problem for me. I just mixed the second color a little less than the first color and it turned out good.
