Vent: A customer brought in a car with a weird clear coat reaction

Got a 2017 Honda Accord in the shop Tuesday with a milky haze over the fresh quarter panel. The painter said he followed the tech sheet for the basecoat, but the clear from our usual supplier just wouldn't lay flat. Has anyone seen this with a specific brand of clear lately?

My buddy's shop had that same haze last month, maybe check your reducer like elizabeth_jackson said?

Check your reducer. That milky look is a classic sign of bad mixing.
