I posted a similar question in the "paint and body" section and the response I got was improper paint prep or bad paint/primer products. My truck was recently painted and small rust stains and bubbles have been popping up, so I'm just gonna get my repainted by someone who actually knows what they're doing.

I got the truck 3 years ago with this paint, and now only on the driver side fender in the back they start showing up but imma end up restoring it because i have some other rust spots and paint chips

Yeah, if its gonna get painted make sure all rust is properly taken care off, they prep the body properly, and they use the correct primer and paint. Mine is starting to bubble on my lower fenders and rockers, and I have some rust stains on my hood.
