Milky, sticky clear coat after sanding frame

[ClintBX]

Hi ESFMs,

I'm restoring a frame and finished painting it. After a 2 month cure of my final 2k clear coat, I'm finally getting around to the cut and polish phase.

I sanded it with 1000 grit wet and after wiping it down and drying it, there are white milky/hazy blotches. It's also sticky in areas.

Is this normal? I used spray max 2k clear in a can.

I plan to go on to 1200, 1500 and 2000 grit, but I don't know if I should anymore

Looking forward to your feedback

Clinton

No not normal. Something has gone wrong. Remove all finish and start over. Sandblast and powder coat.
