Rust??

We own a 2014 coupled Co-Motion Supremo that is 8 months old, with approx. 1500 miles. It has seen 6-7 hours in light rain & has been washed with soap and a hose 3 times.
When relocating the Di2 battery this weekend I noticed a light brown substance (rust?) in both seat tubes. I was not totally surprised to find this. What I was surprised to find was rust in the top and boom tubes. Some of it comes off with just a good rubbing from a towel. Some is quite stubborn. When I put the bike back together, I will use Frame Saver in hopes to stop this issue. Has anyone else had rust issues with Co-Motion steel bikes & should I be worried. I contacted Co-Motion, but have not heard back yet.
Much thanks
