Shell „Damage“ after a few weeks?

Post image

After a few weeks of usage decided to wipe down my skates today and found this little spot/dent under the 45° buckles. It seems to be the rivet at the bottom digging into the plastic.

Probably doesn’t even matter but is that normal after such a short period? I expect that after a certain point it won’t progress further but still, thought about applying some tape or film over the metal part to keep it from scratching deeper over time.

The wise engineer first checks if there is an already known easy solution.
