No one else has given an answer so I will give it a go.

First, I do not have a OM3-Ti so I have no first hand experience on 
this topic, however I do recall that It has been mentioned a number 
of times on this list that the coating on the 3Ti is much tougher 
than that on the 4Ti.

I suspect  your question has gone unanswered because no one on the 
list who owns a 3Ti uses it.   They are all packed away carefuly in 
cupboards as collectors items or investments. ;-)

I think the reputation of the 4Ti paint is a little unfair.  It wears 
because people use them a lot as they are such great machines 
to use for their intended purpose.  I realy don't care about paint 
coming off because resale value does not realy concern me as I have 
no intention of parting with mine.
