AT214 Valued Member United States 228 Posts	Posted 03/02/2015 11:42 pm would that be rot? Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/03/2015 12:08 am Kind of looks like a cigarette light (bic) may have heated that area and the bubbling is around where the area heated happened. It is a darker color in that area? Report this Post to the Staff
Stormy Valued Member United States 89 Posts	Posted 03/03/2015 12:21 am I'll look at it better tomorrow. My "research station" is just outside of our bedroom, and my husband is sleeping. I wouldn't want to blind him in the night! Report this Post to the Staff
Normic67 Pillar of the Community 798 Posts	Posted 03/03/2015 12:21 am Iv done those kinds of tests and if it was from a flame it would need to of been a very small but hot one. I don't think a lighter would be able to do that. Report this Post to the Staff
Silverworld11 Pillar of the Community 613 Posts	Posted 03/03/2015 04:35 am Those little pocket lighters that are a mini torch may be hot enough. Its odd I am not sure on this one. Report this Post to the Staff
Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 03/03/2015 3:56 pm I'd say you are seeing zinc rot under the plating. Report this Post to the Staff
tweak800 Pillar of the Community United States 1249 Posts	Posted 03/04/2015 02:52 am It is possible cause there is defiantly rot there but to only be there and in a full circle' not having a beginning or end, I would lean towards heat like coop said bur I completely agree with silver world that Def not a Bic maybe a little butane lighter could do that but I think the color damage would be worse. Someone with a butane lighter needs to conduct an experiment Report this Post to the Staff
Silverworld11 Pillar of the Community 613 Posts	Posted 03/04/2015 05:18 am I think it is clear PMD is safe to say,the Why and How is a bad bet guessing game. I am not clear myself why/how this happen to the Cent,public handling is a sure bet overall. Report this Post to the Staff
