flake off

But as the drone zoomed in, it caught something never seen before—a milky white film that appeared to flake off the young shark’s tail as it swam.

It was white all over, but the white layer seemed to be flaking off.

Dandruff isn’t caused by dry skin, but instead by a yeastlike fungus that feeds on scalp oil and can inflame the skin of the scalp, causing it to flake off.

Old, solid houses, white paint flaking off their bricks, look out over the river where people used to race sailboats in the summer and in the winter skate across the thick ice.

Currently, paint flakes off the Fairgrounds’ cantilevered roof over the grandstands.
