I have the same issue with the belt and also the jump suit has some paint weathering that does come off with some water but i haven't notice anyone posting pics showing that.
There is no flaking thank god but i noticed you can get it off with a bit off water also. I just wanted to make sure there was not a QC defect. It makes sense to have weather in it, so i left it like that. I will buy 303 to protect the suit.
Great review !!! i just got mine in the mail and everything is great but i noticed that the jumpsuit has a lot of paint smears all over it... is that normal? In some of your pictures it shows a bit but mine is way more pronounced...
