    Have you recently sanitized your system with bleach?  I've had similar rust spots when I didn't rinse the bleach solution sufficiently.

    I did sanitize with bleach solution.  In retrospect, hard to know if wasn't rinsed well enough but I believe so.  I have used Comet cleanser (bleach) on my SS sinks at home and have not had any issues.  I'm suspecting the issue is more about the grade of SS sink used in the trailer.  Perhaps pandemic created a change in vendor/quality?  I don't believe I should be seeing any rust so soon. The forum seems mixed on this.

    I've always heard that you shouldn't use bleach on stainless steel. Maybe you haven't noticed a problem at home because your home sink gets a lot of use (rinsing with fresh water). But if you use bleach in the T@B and then leave it parked for a while, I can see how it could cause a problem.
