Well, you got me curious so I just looked at mine and guess what? It is also that dirty brown color. Now I don't really remember what it looked like new but I purchased mine about the same time- 1-1/2 to 2 years ago. I wonder if a bad batch went out? I have to say though, even with the brownish color I have no problem seeing the critical points.
MintLP Protractor Issue. Anyone else?
Hello,
I went to use my MintLP Protractor last week to do a re-check of Arm, cause I had dis-mounted the Arm.
Last time I used it, was when I first recieved it, over a good year ago, maybe closer to two years.
What I have noticed with mine, that it was once a frosted transluscent clear overlay over a sheet of glass mirror has now changed.
Now I notice, that clear frosted color of the overlay has turned a dirty brown stained color. Anyone else have this happen?
Whether any other detrimental effects have occured, I am unsure, but this Protractor was always kept wrapped in its protective Plastic Bag, in its Cardboard Shipping Box, it shouldn't have turned a brown color, expecially not for what this protractor cost.
I'm thinking of emailing Yip, and asking why this happened, and what can be done about it? Mark
