Do owners experience frequent paint chips, corrosion o r rust on the exterior body panels of the Glory 580?

Given Pakistan’s climate heat, humidity, coastal areas and road conditions gravel, stones, salt, etc., do owners notice premature paint damage, stone chips, peeling clear coat, o r rust spots appearing early on doors, wheel arches, underbody, o r roof? Which areas are most affected, and how much does repairing/repainting cost?

Paint chips, rust / corrosion on body panels

What owners report:

A user with ~29,000 km on a Glory 580 Pro says they observed a rust spot on the “diggi” rear hatch/trunk area.
Reddit

On Gari.pk, there is a thread about “paint problems” for the Glory 580, where people mention chips / discoloration / small rust patches showing up.

Another forum thread mentions radiator leaks though not exactly body corrosion caused by corrosion in hoses o r radiator over time. That suggests moisture / rust is a concern in some parts.

What seems to affect it:

Exposed areas, like edges of panels, areas near the rear tailgate / hatch “diggi” are more vulnerable.

Where stone chips occur e.g. wheel arches, bumpers, if the underlying metal is exposed, rust tends to start.

Climate / exposure to humidity / road salt / water splash seem to contribute.

What owners do / suggestions:

Spot treatment if you notice minor rust early: sanding, applying rust inhibitor, repainting that small area.

Getting “paint matched qalam” touch‑up pens used to hide small chips.

Regular washing / waxing to protect paint, especially edges and underbody.
