The haze could be simply from the steps followed for sanding were prematurely ended for the next grit up thus not fully removing the deeper scratches of that grit.

The other issue may be the polishing compound being used. Are you using just meguirs aluminum polish or are you using an actual buffing compound like a rouge? I find i get much better results from the original polish using rouge and then maintaining the lips with meguirs polish.

This car is far too nice to be considered any kind of mistake. Makes me wish mine was alot cleaner haha. Great job!
