Just curious if this is where damage normally starts and if anything can be done to prevent it from happening.

I've seen a few guys that take off the buttons, try to touch up the area with paint and restore the surronding area then spray multiple beefed up layers of rattle can clear coat.
It is hard to alleviate the fading around Flipper Buttons without some ugly protector especially when the Manufacturers went cheap on the Metal Side Rails that no longer encompass the buttons.
One thing that helps Big Time is to not let people play WEARING RINGS on their hands....
There are some Mylar and Metal ones out there similar to the ones linked above...
Titan makes good stuff, I was going to order these, no adhesive mess.
Clear Cabinet Button Protector

That would fit a flipper button but in my case I have the magna save too, I wrote the company and they were quick to reply that they don't have a protector that can do both at the same time.This is your answer. Specifically designed for your problem statement...and no adhesive. Works great, I have these on one of my pins now and am happy.
An original BLACK KNIGHT shouldn't need any Button protection as it has nice WIDE Factory Side Rails..Ah, Magna Save - must be a William's Black Knight.

Unfortunately, none with a Magna Save Hole and the all the single holed ones seem to be out of stock. If you did find a metal one, you could alwas drill out a second hole if there is room?would you have any links to the products by any chance and would it be something that could fit both the flipper and magna save?
I ended up finding it! Seems to be only one person selling these, found the following on eBay.
Normally I see these shield with a product description of Mylar, in this case it is made from 1mm PETG / Vivak, is that the same as Mylar?
