Rubber bloom is common for high quality natural rubber- see this article Rubber bloom occurs when curing agents, accelerators, or lubricating agents used in the curing process migrate to the surface of a compound.

When bloom is undesired for appearance reasons, it may be easily removed by washing the part in water or a light mineral oil solution.
