When inserting the cables into the slots, place the cable at a 90 degree angle relative to the bar and push it in that way.  It reduces wear and tear on the cable.  Oh yeah, a Shure A53M doughnut works well as a shock mount and is even more lo-pro than an A20. 

The paint around the collar on the active collette will wear over time, that is par for the course.

Actually the collette connector will slide into a slot on the end of the bar, a pretty tight fit too.
