That is only a finish, some like some don't. It may be done that way to save money, I don't know. Earlier ASPS had a smoother finish similar to OS and TT, I thought this looked better. Fox used to use a real cheap finish. No texture in the molds to maintain, no blasting, etching, or cleaning of the injection molded parts. Just throw them in a drum and let the tumble in an abrasive polish for a time. Made for a highly polished finish, but you could see slight swirls where the aluminum would ever so slightly change density, and it highlighted very small surface voids of which every casting has a few. With a finished surface the edge of the voids would smooth a bit and would hardly be noticed.
"inexpensive casting".

Ermmmm....
Your post is shown as being in reply to me, but the quote you included is not mine. Now you are putting words in my mouth - er - fingertips? <G>
Or is your quote mine from an earlier post? I don't need help getting confused, old friend.

I'll remember to say "you better give me a good one or......" next time I'll order.....
Unfortunately i DON'T handle 400lbs weights when I do some workout, maybe that's the reason....
