So i just got my whole car repainted. 2 stage Riviera Blue paint.
Wondering what I should do to give the new paint proper care. Do I let it sit outside for a few days to cure the paint better?
Any advice would help
What I have in my arsenal
Menzerna Fast Glose FG-400
Menzerna Super Finish SF-4000
Menzerna Color Lock
Menzerna Power Lock
Lake Country Pads and a portercable

You must wait at least 30 days before attempting to polish, wax, seal the paintwork that way the paint had time to cure

How fresh is freshly painted? I've done compounding and polishing on day old paint before. Waxing, sealing, or coating SHOULD NOT be done for at least 30 days.

No waxes or anything like that. Most paint is buffed at shop so polishing shouldn't be an issue unless it is an aio product. Washing I'd fine. I myself waited a little too wash to allow cure time. I waited 90 days to wax.

They wet sanded the car it looked like. Just had micro swirls, would it be ok to hit it with Menzerna Super Finish SF-4000? If so which lake country pad should i use with it?
Also should i wait for paint to cure then use the sf4000 and wax and seal
thx for all the replies.
