I only have used the coated G1's, and quite a bit, but I have definitely noticed this^^^^, pretty much. Haven't they improved the coating in the last two years or something? Isn't that what the UV thing is supposed to address?
The bummer about the ill-formed hoops is that Evans' smaller profile hoop fits on some of my vintage drums and in rims that others' - including Aquarian, which I use A TON and love - just won't.
As we know, Evans is now under the thumb of....g-g-g-guitar players! (Hurts to say it!).
