I agree, new paint needs to out gas. You could put some glaze for some protection in the mean time, but dont wax or use a sealant.

. I used this on a newly painted BMW hood. Good claims, but sort of a pita to remove.
3M Imperial Hand Glaze is a gentle moisturizer, especially for beautifying freshly painted surfaces!
