Clear Prep+Finish™ dried with a milky haze.

A milky white haze is a rare occurrence with Clear Prep+Finish™ and usually occurs on dark colors where it was applied too thickly and / or over-worked as it began to dry.

A sure sign that Clear Prep+Finish was applied too thickly.

The Solution:

  1. Wet a sponge or rag with water, and wring out most the excess.
  2. Gently buff the surface in a circular motion to thin the finish.
  3. Allow to dry.

You can also try a quick swipe with rubbing alcohol, though this may strip color and require touch-up.

Worst case scenario, apply a glaze (mixture of color and Clear Prep+Finish) as your final topcoat. Even the tiniest drizzle of color added to the color will correct the haze.
