Whats up fellas

when i go to paint my regal i am stripping to bare metal so this question is more out of curiosity.
My regal now gets like black mold/mildew whatever in the paint if left for a while without washing. What would cause this?
Thx

Did you paint it with a loaf of bread?

It may have a yeast infection... treat it with a coating of Vagisil.

Unwaxed porous paint, left in humid conditions with natural elements (tree sap, pollen, etc)

All paint degrades over time, the paint on my wagon is like a piece of scotchbrite on the upper surfaces. A good waxing will slow it down a lot...along with regular baths
