While I'm asking impossible questions, anyone know why the paint washes off when I clean it with dish soap or rub it with a piece of towel? I've never heard of a bicycle with water soluble paint. Some of it is flaking off due to rust, but the blue color wipes off a fair bit without any effort. Those highlights in the picture aren't because it's shiny, that's where the colour is coming off....

Very weird.
