These are resin, the paint doesn’t flake nor does the electroplating wear off. However, when you drop one big chunks of resin fly off resulting in a sharp edge, totally safe

.
If you made them all like the tanks we started with, polished stainless, you wouldn’t be able to market one tank as a resin version, carbon fiber version and the metal version.
We just aren’t a target demographic anymore.
Having said all that I love the flavor of these tanks. Best flavor producing drop in coils i’ve used.
ETA forgot to say I like number 5
