naturally, when one gets a new product, they clean it every day. as i was doing so with my mbp, i used a piece of paper to get dust and dirt out of my trackpad. as i was doing so, i noticed the crack on the trackpad (the crack of the trackpad button closest towards you) is actually painted with black paint and that i had scraped some of the paint off. now the crack is revealing spots of silver. has anyone had this happen to them and how does one fix it? it's a minor problem but it's really bugging me. my macbook pro is already suffering from build quality issues and hard drive clicks and whining noises. i don't want more random issues detracting from an otherwise great laptop to the point that the macbook pro becomes a gross, defective computer.
