Thats funny.....they told me to be sure and not to wax it for at least a month and if I could wait 2 months would be even better.
thats tight it cost me about $800-1000 for paint and materials just to do a car.... and u can wash, wax, and rub your *** on the car in a week! but you'll just slide rite off cause it will feel like glass..... https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=236882

Typically, you should wait between 90 and 120 days before doing anything to the fresh paint. Including washing to be safe. It needs to outgas so it can fully cure. It does depend on the body shop and whether they use heat to sure the finish or if they simply just spray and let sit. If you have to, you can just put a simple non abrasive/cleaning wax such as P21S or souveran to ensure you are at least not damaging the paint in that regards.
