I thought the paint would crack off the joints? Like as it goes up and down would run the edge of te paint off then flake off. I no it wouldn't rust as its stainless but didn't want it to look all flaked

Just zoomed in on your hard cover and I see what you have done, mine is a different set up I didn't go up the body like you have.
