How soon can I wax or polsih then wax after getting new paint, I got it done at the end of december.

Thanks,
Ryan
 
First, check with whomever did the work. Most paint shops have recommendations...or they should. I had some minor work done and they told me to wait 90 days.
 
you good consider where in the end of March. Usually 30-60 days is sufficent.
 
I generally recommend to my clients that they wait 3-4 months before using a wax/sealant after a spray. Different manufactures recommend different intervals, but most all of them cure within 4 months. If you do regular washes, the paint will be just fine waiting that long.
 
i just had some new paint on my whole truck and they said to me 8 weeks will give it time to cure before waxing and not to use harsh cleaning chems.. hope this helps
