That's a common thing during construction. It's just a small layer of oxidation and it has nothing to do with whether the steel is from China or the U.S.A. When the structure is complete, they go over everything with sanders and then apply a layer of primer to fix the entire surface before applying the final paint.

Good, I thought we got some cheap material or something.

Yes! It was called Kezar Stadium.
He's a seahawk fan. He don't know about kezar. lol
Kezar Stadium, home to the 49ers from 1960 to 1971, playing the last NFL game there in 1971 against the Dallas Cowboys, a playoff game. Amazing what the Google machine can tell you. Interesting that the Oakland Raiders played at Candlestick before the 49ers did, wouldn't have guessed that.
btw, I didn't know because I'm not a San Francisco fan, not because I'm a Seahawks fan, there is a difference. Ass.

@NavyHawk
With that handle, you'll have to excuse anyone around here mistaking you for a Seahawks fan. That should be pretty obvious to you.

being a Seahawks fan means you're not an SF fan. so, yes, it is the same thing. and there is no need to attack another poster. what he said was completely true.

Hard to believe they have gone so far so fast. As for the design, it is just lovely and doesn't remind me of jerry jones and his "rocket ship with jaws" stadium, which i find to be particularly ugly. Beautfiul inside, but outside it is ugly. A couple of the new downtown stadiums are ok, but not to my liking. The "Thing" in the desert, AZ, just looks like an afterthought. Our stadium allows one to see mountains from one perspective, and fits in with California laid back style perfectly. Good on Jeb, the DeBartolos, architects, and builders. SB there in a few short yrs, and it would be nice if we hosted it with the 49ers as the participants..and winners. Hopefully we will have a SB or two before that, with good fortune.
