Is haze on coins the beginning of toning or is it something else?

I have seen IKES, especially 74-s ones who get a haze first, kinda cloudy- then they work themselves into rainbow tones (brown box)
theres also others that get a certain haze that just mutates into...
well I shouldnt need to finish that statement

The good news is it seems to wash away with an acetone dip which does not harm the coin, doesn't even touch the tone of the coin.
I have no idea what causes fog to develop: none of the SBAs or Ikes that I have MS dipped to clean up a solid but grungy/ugly specimen and subsequently had holdered by PCGS have developed fog.
I've read, and it makes sense, that whatever the cause, higher humidity is an accellerant: it pays to dehumidify your coin storage locker, safe, or safety deposit box. Rob
