    Starting to get rust on edges of body panels near bumper. Have had the Toyota recall spray (undercoating) and had Krown treatments past 2 years (Canadian drill and spray company )

    Body rust.

    Frame actually looks good surprisingly considering the amount of salt in winter here.

    Here’s where it’s starting. Any suggestions besides touch up paint ?

    Touch up paint is not going to fix that problem. You really need to go to a collision shop and have them media blast the area to completely remove the rust - which is coming from the back side - before proper surface prep, primer and paint.
