I can't believe I forgot to ask again at the dealership today..............but does any one know how long I should wait to wash and wax including clay bar after body and paint work is done? I just got my Liberty back today from the dealership and am itching so bad to detail it out....... |

'race glaze' is nice stuff... takes out swirl marks and looks just like wax but does not stay on for long. honestly i'd say you'd be safe if you waited a week or two... that is assuming they had a spray booth and put it through a 'bake' cycle... if they did not bake it then yes. wait Atleast 6 weeks. once they come out of the booth baked they are pretty much cured.. if somethings going to solvent-pop it will normally do it during a bake cycle. |

Yes this would probably depend on who did the body work and how it was done... |

I'm a bit old fashioned in that I believe you shouldn't wax your car the first year. Wash, yes of course, but often waxing just isn't necessary on brand new paint/clear coat. Takes a while for those microscopic cracks and pits to appear which cause water to not bead up. |
