What do you consider normal wear and tear for the paint on colored Klean Kanteens?
Under normal use, the paint on the new colored Klean Kanteens will not flake or chip off. When we tested paints for our colored bottles, safety was our first concern but durability was a close second. The paint performs well in lab tests. Many of us at Klean Kanteen also use the colored bottles so we’ve been putting them to the test in the real world too. Sure, if you drop your Klean Kanteen or jam it into a metal water bottle cage, you can scratch it. It’s also possible to scrape off the paint if you try hard enough, just like any other painted surface. But if your paint is flaking or peeling off, you might have gotten a bottle from a bad batch, which does happen occasionally. If that’s the case, it’s covered by our warranty and we’ll replace it at no cost to you. Contact our returns department. To prolong the life of your colored Kanteen, we recommend hand washing it with mild detergent. And if you want the ultimate finish in terms of durability, you can’t beat our original electropo
