Shopping out a pin and started swapping the rubbers. I noticed my fingers were black, a lot more than simple dirty rubbers would cause. I looked at the black rubber I had removed and noticed what I thought was some wax residue.

I took some novus to the ring and found what appears to be a white ring that has been painted or sharpied black! I found several others that were the same. Anyone seen this done before?
 
I'd say 7 or 8 of them were like that. Pretty funny stuff!
 
Makes you wonder why anyone would bother to do this. Seems like a lot of effort for a tech on a route to spend time blacking out a rubber.
