I've tried to smear off these off the BB with my hand but I couldn't(I really don't think these are coated), so I went on to rub these BBs against my hard wood floor. Indeed the plastic started smearing off. Then I tried some Metal tech 0.25g and found that they do not smear off the floor as easily as Madbull BBs(Still smears off after a while though).

I need further testing to prove this, right now it's just a theory, but I don't like the result at all.
Is why I used to wash the graphite off Straight BBs.
