Are your frames sandblasted? If yes, then you are having a problem with your glue or fixing agent.
Thanks,

Are you gluing & stretching yourself? If so, then it's a problem with your procedure, either in the frame prep, and or gluing itself. We use aluminum frames all the time, and never have any problem with the glue failing.
