If you've got a film building up on the rotor housing's chrome face, aren't you behind the curve already?  I could see
it being a problem in a piston cylinder's head.  I've had to chip off gunk with a screwdriver it had built up so thick.
But they aren't constantly being wiped by an apex seal like in a rotary.
