In and of itself, distilled water should leave no deposits regardless of the mist, as it is pure water. Now, if you have a very high particulate count in the air, it could be picking some of that up and depositing it, or the humidifier tank and internals might be contaminating the distilled ware and are in need of cleaning. It's also possible that something is reacting with the water and discoloring based on that.
