We painted some of our fence panels last year, today I noticed that
there are rusty coloured growths on the painted panels which are

Does anyone know what this is please?

Sounds like the spore bodies of a fungal wood rot or it might be the
beginnings of lichen growing on the surface. A picture would help.

Lichens are usually pale grey or greenish and slow growing.

Thanks, just posted a link to the pic.
