Mines was shiny untlie I used royal purple over a year ago and havent had any issuse besides the sweating on the small area by the water pump. Other than that I just use an oil flush/cleaner and M1. Plus the dipstick is a thin metal with so the finish can easily burn off with high amounts of heat. The moving components in your engine is made of far superior strong heat treated material.
