USA's F-22, F-117 and B-2 needs constant care of its coating, they have to re-coat the paint after few flights``it has nothing to do with 'cheap' chinese job or India style paint job, sorry to dissapoint you kid
and this picture has been on chinese forum for few days, some insiders said it is part of the coating durability test since after the first flight this plane has gone through a very intensive flight testings, and it is very expensive to have war-time standard maintainance jobs
This photo validates one thing, J-20 is rigorously tested by PLA for an early induction. Losing paint in this fashion is nothing to worry about if you remember the J-10 prototype that developed cracks in airframe due to rigorous flight schedule.
