So I just picked up a clients car from the body shop for detailing. It had the rear bumper and rear hatch replaced and repainted. Of course when I picked it up the guy at the body shop says dont wax the panels that were just painted for 30 days. I say okay and bring the car back to my house. I'm going to be doing an exterior full detail(basically wash and wax) so I will need to completely wash the car first. Even the most careful person in the world can cause minor swirling with washing a car sometimes and I'm worried about washing the fresh paint and causing swirls which I cant "wax" or polish out. I know Menz advertises that their products(or some of them) are completely safe to use on fresh paint. Has anyone here tried it? I know it's not a "wax" but will the polish leave a coating that will hinder the paint curing process? Any help is much appreciated. Oh and YES I did already see that article Mike Phillips posted about this matter but I couldnt quite find the answers I was looking for. Thanks!
 
They are body shop safe so you can use them. Just don't wax for 30 days. I had my door repainted last year, and I immediately buffed out all of the swirls that were left by the body shop. I used menzerna Intensive
Polish with no problems, and followed it up with Super Finish "Nano" polish.
 
Great thanks guys! I didn't feel any over spray or other contaminants that would indicate claying being necessary especially since the client is on a tight budget. I think I'll go over the freshly painted parts with some 85rd. I have SIP in case I do get some swirls in it.
