Default WTF!!white haze in the paint

This is about the 4th bumper i have painted and never had a problem until this one.I painted the bumper bout two weeks ago and wet sanded it with 800,1000,1500,2000 and when i went to buff it out i got a white haze. I did notice some while i was wet sanding as well. the paint used is a ppg essentials single stage black. did it not have enough time to cure b4 i cut n buffed it??

OUCH.i personally never wetsand single stage, its just not a good idea in my opinion. But then again i use single stage once in a blue moon at the shop.Your basically sanding the pigments out of the top of the material but everyone has there own ways when it comes to dealing with paint. It looks as if theres some other crazy issue like some solvent reaction or water in there somewhere. quite possibly the reducer or activator is messing with the underlying material and reacting. Did you happen to seal the bumper before laying this paint ?

It kinda does look like you sanded through. But it depends what shopline primer you used. Cus 2k surfacer from shopline is beige/brown. That looks like sealer under there.
