They use fish oil for rust preventative. From the Rustoleum site
"There's a high-seas adventure story behind the creation of Rust-OleumŽ coatings. A Scottish-born sea captain, Robert Fergusson, noticed that when raw fish oil spilled on rusty metal decks, corrosion stopped spreading.
This observation inspired the Captain to create the world's first rust-preventive paint. But it wasn't easy. After settling in New Orleans, Captain Fergusson spent years of painstaking (and smelly) research in an attempt to formulate a fish-oil-based paint."
I worked on spacecraft and aircraft and the PHD specialist in glues and coatings always told us that the fish oil would ruin any paint job- no matter how well you cleaned it. I did ask how and apparently it wicks into pores in the metal.
So, any rustoleum on your car valences? That might be the problem.

Nope, I didn't paint anything except the front valance and I didn't use rustoleum. I used Krylon.
The other panels were stock.
