I'm from Wash. D.C. Ain't got no "horse sense".
Problem solved. A bunch of metal dust from grinding the welds where I filled mirror holes rusted. I had to go on the boat for a week, did the grinding and then the truck sat while I was away. Upon closer inspection it was just too weird to have rust coming thru 3 coats of primer and 4 coats of enamel. Then I remembered the grinding. Some 2000 paper cleaned it up.
Whew! That was a relief, lemme tell ya!
