Default Orange Peel on Lower Body Panels

I washed and Zainoed my Tundra for the first time this weekend and noticed the paint on the lower body panels below the body moldings is awful! Orange peel like crazy! It seems like the paint is fine(although thin) higher up on the truck but looks like crap down below. I don't think a claybar will help this! Is this common to all Tundra's? If so is there any cure?

That orange peel is intentional. All trucks with the All-Weather Guard Package have it.

Yes, this is the "anti chip" paint.

Been around for a long time. My '90 4Runner had it. Resists chips really well. I just hope the paint will be as good on my '02 Tundra.

At our last LA gathering, everyone truck had the orange peel except for Lons. Thats because he has a custom paint job. I may be wrong though????
