that was my first thought too. Just spray some wd 40 on a rag and wipe off. Pretty much used on all machinery like stated above to keep machined surfaces corrosion free as they sit to be bought or stored for periods of time. If it looks good after than that is all it is. Tons of stuff sticks to that stuff, like honey, until it hardens up a bit. The chips in the paint and other dings shouldn't be there though. That would make me concerned, although it is pretty hard to wreck a heavy piece of machinery like that unless they threw it off the loading dock or something. I would still inquire why it came in looking like that.
