Late 70's Fender finishes

I heard that some of the late 70s strat finishes were water based?? Is that true.
the reason I ask is I built a 75/79 partsocaster recently and it sounds great but on my first gig with it last week the whole arm rest area hazed white were my arm sweat all over it??It turned back but everytime I sweat on it it hazes white??
I had this happen on a freinds 75 Les Paul.I sat in w/ his band for like 3 songs and when I got done the finish was white?? :?
