    The paint of my keyboard is blistering and flaking off. This is happening on several keys, the shift, caps lock and the backspace keys primarily.
    I have searched this site and others but have found no one else with this same problem.

    You should change the brand of your hand moisturiser.

    you know how Popeye's forearms look imagine fingers like that.
    all kidding aside, it started out looking like a scratch down the middle of the key.
