If you bought it new, what does your warranty statement say? I bought a Bach Strad flugel back in 1988 amd the lacquer started to deteriorate after a 11 months....I took it back to the shop and demanded it to be relacquered. I still have it and the lacquer is holding out very well indeed compared to later models. Silver plating should certainly not be flaking off after 18 months unless faulty workmanship is to blame. Take it back to where it was purchased and ask for it to be replated under warranty.
