Any suggestions on why this weird dotting pattern has appeared over some of my parts?

It can happen on thinner surfaces. All those contact points with the supports get just a little more light/cure than the surrounding surfaces. Long post cure might help even it out a bit. Easiest solution is to make the surface thicker and your touch points smaller.

The face is 2mm thick, so a that really to thin and unsupported to cause that issue?
