#1 of 3 MKX Paint Problems by okie8

I have a 2007 MKX that is chocolate white exterior.
It appears to be rusting all over the sides and rear but not on the hood. It looks like it is coming from under the paint but there is not chip in the paint, it just bleeds through. I have tried waxing but it comes right back, has anyone else had this problem.

No not yet but I do find the paint job extremely thin. Cheaps easily on bumpers. Wax protection does not help.

I've heard of that, resulting from fine metal particles becoming imbedded in the paint (called 'rail dust' I think). It's not the car rusting. Do a search on that, might find some info that helps.
