Hmm...good thought, but even the section just above the top grip completely turns color, I don't think there would be cracks around that area as it barely bends at all there. The finish looks very good (completely covering threads) and it nice and thick too. BTW when I said years ago I meant like 20 years ago.
Still if thats the issue, can it be re-sealed so I don't get damage>?
