Chrome flaking off?

My kegerator is probably around 6 years old at this point. I’m starting to notice flakes of chrome in my beer, and it looks like the chrome finish on the shanks is coming off.  I don’t think it’s the Perlicks because they are newer and still look good. Has anyone else experienced this? It’s probably time to replace them, and I guess this is why they sell stainless steel options.

Tell people “you’ve heard of goldschlager? This is chromeschlager!”

Yes go SS in your draught system.

+1 to this is why stainless is better.

+1 to your perlicks. i have (4) 525ss and i love em.

i had the same issue but only a couple months after purchasing my kegerator.  it was from one of the faucets.  beveragefactory sent me a new one for free… but at 6 years old, that’s probably not an option for you.  mmm stainless…
