Default Did Elixir Change Their Nanowebs?

I have been using Nanowebs on my GS8 for the last two years (my 2 year anniversary with the guitar is in 3 days I think). Anyway, I love the strings to death and haven't had any problems. I just put on a new set 2 days ago though, and they are flaking like crazy. There is probably 60% of the coating left on the G string, and the others are around 80%.

I haven't bought Elixirs in a while as I buy in bulk, but I recently ran out, so this set is fresh from the store. Did they change the coating or something? They will sound great but my fretboard is covered in the stuff and they are a little rough to play. Its more of an annoyance than anything, but I am guessing this set isn't going to last long at all.
