White paint Rock guard staining

I've had my 2016 since September and I admit I didn't wash it often throughout hunting season . Now I've noticed the rock guard paint on the bottom of the cab is stained yellow on both sides of the truck . I've scrubbed and used all kinds of cleaners trying to get it back white . Any suggestions ?

 

Try something more aggressive like Meguiars Ultimate Compound.
White, single-stage paint is very hard.

 

Maybe clay bar would help

Clay will fix it. Watch some videos on YouTube. You may need to polish after. Meguiars Ultimate Compound is really some of the best over the counter stuff available. I love it.

 

I had the same issue on my super white. Acetone will take it right off. I use it to get the rail dust and road tar off my truck too. Use it sparingly and dry with clean cloth afterwards. Then use a quick detailer or wax after that if you are really worried about protecting the clear coat.

 

Acetone is not the friendliest of chemicals. I'll stick to clay.

 

Nanoskin Autoscrub

Makes clay so antiquated

(and I was using clay when clay wasn't cool)

 

I'll look into it!

 

I thought about doing bed liner but I can't bring myself to that at this point lol

Their white might be pretty close. You can order sample chips IIRC.

 

Here's an example of the lower rocker panel/ground effects being clayed on my white camry:

White paint will stain.

Wash it off in hunting season every once in a while.

 

White paint is super easy to clean up and have it look brand new though. It's way easier to correct than black.

 

thats easier said than done when you hunt or drive forest service roads literally everyday .... I guess I should've bought the quicksand

 

I've used it on plenty of cars when I worked at a Toyota dealership as a automotive recondition tech. It's not something I would recommend doing often but once a year to clean off rail dust and tar won't hurt the paint. Clay won't take of rail dust. And I only do it to lower half of truck bc that's where you will see the tiny rust colored and black specks.

 

Okay, I've never had any problems using clay to get stuff out of my paint, but I guess we can each do what works for ourselves I'm just not a fan of using organic solvents unless absolutely necessary. I'm especially not eager to clean paint with one that is is specifically used for dissolving paint ...

 

And other road junk.

I have the same issue on my truck, took it back to the dealership and they said it’s not covered because it’s over a year old, I tried industrial grade degreaser, clay and wax and it’s still the same, Any updates on how to correct this problem? Thanks guys!

 

The rock guard/chip guard is under the paint. It's sprayed on first. then truck is painted. The paint is chemically reacting to the rock/chip guard. On some of our trucks it wasn't cured enough, before trucks were painted. It's not just Super white trucks. Here is a picture of 6 month old cement. I'm going to live with it, because I don't want sides repainted. They would have to strip paint/rock/chip guard and respray sides of truck. Battled with Toyota over this, and took it to two body shops. Both said same, not proper cure/ application of rock/chip guard. FYI - On my truck it wasn't there/noticeable 1st 6 months, started to appear after that. Under 2700 miles in that 6 months, garage kept.
