Is this a heat related problem? I'm in the Teaxs Gulf coast area

This is a problem I noticed on a nav radio I purchased. I swapped them out with my OEM radio ***** and I was OK. It is to do with being used a lot and the oil on the skin ruins the finish on them. Someone said they cleaned and resprayed them, but that may be a future problem as the **** is softish and the paint dries hard and may crack later.
It may be possible to buy new ***** from Becker Radio in the States, New Jersey?
