    Has anyone seen this before?

    it is only on the metal panels and only in the area of the thicker/textured areas. Looks like a discoloration. Tried clay bar, rubbing compound, etc…nothing works. Looks to be under or in the textured paint/clear. As why none of my remedies are working.

    Got the truck on September 13th. It didn’t sit on the lot as I got the allocation during the build process so it was delivered and immediately flat bedded to me. And nothing was visible on the truck during the first 3 weeks of ownership. Has only 600 miles on it. Truck was clay barred and ceramic waxed. And been washed 2 times since that treatment with ceramic foam cannon with my pressure washer. All Chemical Guys products.

    Iron deposits? I had orange spots on my white CRV and used Adam’s iron remover to get rid of them. Not sure if this is the case for yours but just throwing that out there.

    It is also on the lower portion of the bed where the clear protective film is.

    I think he’s talking about the yellow or orangish spot on the lower panels and not the textured part on the door. That is normal for sure.

    I understand that. It is the yellow stains that are in the textured areas that are not correct. I was showing the clear film area as it shows that it is under the film but still in the textured areas. But if you notice it is not on the rocker that is plastic. But still has the textured clear/paint. Both sides of the truck. Passenger side worse than the driver side.

    My apologies, not gonna lie until you specifically called out the yellow color in the quoted text here I didn't even notice it. Funny how the brain works and sees what it wants to see. Again my apologies for being useless in this thread lol.
