Hello,
When I got my wing shipment, I noticed that the inside of the spar box crate got wet.
The torque-tube looks thus:
So, this was part of a subkit, and several pieces were Saran-wrapped together, all others were aluminum. Some parts DO have a chalky-white type of look, while others just have a discolored appearance. But, the discoloration will not come off with lacquer thinner, and it does feel rough to a fingernail. Only scotchbrite will remove the discoloration. I am wondering if this is OK, and I can prime over everything, or should I file a claim for all parts with ABF. Also, the other box had one side crushed, and the wing tips were damaged.

Thanks, guys.
