From the tips of their fingers to halfway up their forearms, Zane has snowflake patterns or rather, actual snowflakes that are constantly frozen stuck to their metal skin.
It’s something that has been happening ever since they unlocked their True Potential. In addition to that, frost cakes both of their hands which they leave behind on anything they touch, unless the surface or thing is particularly hot, it takes a while for it to melt.
So now, seven years since they all started working as Ninja, the others are fairly used to it. Used to it in the same way that whenever they went anywhere with sand, they would have to dig chunks of glass out of the sand as they went because of how hot Kai ran.

"Not that I mind you but why are you coming to me about this?" Nya asked as she took their hands in hers as she examined the frost that covered them.
"Who else would I go to? Before you ask, Kai has already tried removing this with his Fire, it did not work," Zane answered. "Or, it did but not for long, the frost returned within minutes," they added.
