Default What are these white crustaceans?
Every time I remove my soft top side windows there are small pea size white crustacean looking spots on the painted rail. They are crusty and come off with some soap and water but what are they and what causes this? I used to think it was from road salt but it's June now and they are still around. Anyone else seen this? Any ideas? Thanks.

I almost didn't click on the title for fear of what I might see a picture of.
