It wasn't in a box that 2yrs so the nickel finish might not be perfect but there's certainly no gouges or divots or deep scratches or anything like that nothing major. I'm just talking about if maybe dust got on it and was wiped off, yes dust will scratch and that's how minor I'm talking about as well.
I just wanted to say something in case it bothers somebody. But if it does that much you can take some metal polish and polish it back out LOL. It's a spray gun though so let's keep that in mind.
