It's good to know the information you gave about working with any freshly painted cars. I figured a new coat of paint requires special care. Good to know stuff, thanks, Scott

Scott, thank you for another great video! I have used M305 on fresh paint before but I have found that Wizards, Shine Master, to be a superior product for fresh paint. It is easy to use and leaves a super slick, shiny surface.

nice simple video again Scott. thanks

Thank you, great video, I just had one of my P71 cars resprayed, it's been 31 days, I will wash her tomorrow. then try some of this M-305.

Great information - Just had my hood repainted - it`s good I have 2 cars

I wanted to be sure to comment and tell you how much I appreciate your videos. Specially the video on the sauce you use for black cars in the sun. You're a huge help. I hope everything is going well for you.

Thanks for explaining that Scott . You're my number one source for detailing info!

Scott thank you for another lesson learned.

Hey Scott great video as always! I have a surplus of meguiars #7 show car glaze. Would that work as well?

thanks for this i got my car painted at the back last month whats the best way to wash the car with

Very informative video, I was just wondering if the same rules apply to a car that had a door repainted and clearcoated at a dealership? It’s a brand new car and I would rather leave it dusty for 30 days or more and not ruin the paint and clear-coat. Thought I’d see if you had anything to suggest about that. Thanks again!

I sealed a car with jetseal. What should I do to strip the sealant. Had no idea about this?

thanks getting my truck out this week and your advice p am going to take

Thanks for that video, my painter said I can put ceramic coating on after a month, I think I will wait one more month

Hi sir i accidentally waxed my car a week after it was released from a repaint shop.. almost a week now after i applied the wax, does it affect the paint already?

How do you wash it while waiting for it to cure? I only have wash wax cleaner?

Scott what about products like 3d aca 505 correction glaze that corrects and leaves paint protection (montan wax)? They claim that are body shop safe but they have protection behind. Do you believe those are safe?

Perfect video! Explains everything on point

What kind of wax applicator did you use here?

Can I use meguiars ultimate polish instead ?

Thanks so much, i just painted my car and i had mixed advice. Most said dont. Some said do it. 60 days. Good to know.

Do spray paint can paints out gas if they were cleared? Can I take it to a car wash or should I just wash by hand with soap and water? What soap would you recommend? Thanks in advance for your help.

Thanks,a was just about to wax after a 2 day paint job😁

Everytime I wet sand clear coat I'm not getting that cloudy haze look so I can polish it. Why is that? Clear coat I use is Raptor 1k Clear coat. What am I doing wrong? How long should I wait before I wrt samd clear coat?

Hello I hope you are doing well! What is the difference between the m305 and #7 show car glaze? Are they both body shop safe and able to be applied to fresh paint? Please let me know and thank you for your time!

Scott, just had my hood painted and my rear quarter panel. It’s jet black paint. My question is though, I was told not to wax or buff for 60+ days but on the ride home it was a 30 minute ride through backroads and I hit some bugs that left their debris on the hood, can I wash it off safely and if I don’t will the marks stay permanently?

Great Scott !

Thank you

So we got my mothers SUV back from the body shop today. I asked the guys that did the work how long I should wait before I can wash and put a sealant on the paint. They didn't hesitate for a second, they said it was safe to wash now but DO NOT put a wax or sealant on it for 90 days. 90 days is on the long side, but they are probably being overly cautious since the work has a life time warranty as long as she owns the vehicle and they don't want to have to paint it again.

Great Video As Always Scot! You’re always a straight shooter and very knowledgeable!🐟

Very good. I just freshly painted a new rear bumper, (Bumper is not on the car yet.) with all the paint steps including the clear coat. I was going to compound, then polish, can I use the mirror glaze after the compound and polish? (I Live in Mckinney Texas)

Nobody seems to answer me 😢 how long do i have to wait to wash my car after clear coating the trunk of my car?

Thank You ❤

Great video Scott; I have a question: I recently had a vehicle repainted and the shop applied wax after two days. Is the paint ruined, and will it need to be redone? Or can the car paint eventually cure completely and harden? Does the was stop the curing process or simply slow it down?

@Andy-wb4qm

old comment, but I will comment here for future users. It can damage paint, not always though. If waxing too soon, without outgassing of fresh paint, there is a possibility of poor bonding and flaking if the painted portion was ever damaged. There is a lot of variables that will contribute to this though. How much has cured, how well the painter took care of the first layer (sanding, primer, etc) and how fast it was applied. Slower between layers and amount, the better, but more time consuming which some painters rush.

Hey I just got the whole right side of my car repainted the passenger front and back after this old do T-Bone me. nobody told me I wasn't supposed to wash or wax it I applied The chemical guy banana wax spray after taking it through Delta Sonic.

We had to do a complete color change on a brand new ambulance at work. The thing is a monster. They are expecting this thing to look like a show truck when we give it back. I know we can buff it and make it look great but it will need a sealant to give it the proper look. And I know we cant use a sealant. Any recommendations?

Hydrate plastic or vinyl?? Heat is the biggest reason for cracking..I would keep it clean and you can use 303 protection, 303 recommends applying at least once a month for maximum "protection".. In Dallas I use a interior windshield shield because most car windshield can block uv light so having something on the inside of the windshield to block heat is vital to preventing cracking

@donstevens7847

Dallas Paint Correction & Auto Detailing oh ok, I thought the reason for cracking was the plastic/vinyl off gassing all of the petroleum products and becoming brittle and unable to expand and contract with temperature changes. I’m sure hydrate is the wrong term to use. Anyway I will try the 303, thanks Scott!

Keep in mind there is a difference between a new car's factory paint (which is fully cured and able to be sealed/waxed, etc.) and auto body paint jobs (aftermarket if you will) needed due to some body work done on the car. The latter is what Scott is discussing.

@apr194828

it depends on the type of paint used to repaint the panel or the entire car most body shops use acrylic lacquer to either spot paint ,paint the entire panel or the entire car now acrylic lacquer dries by evaporation so in four hours the paint can be compounded and the returned to the owner the lacquer will be fully cured in twenty four hours. now acrylic enamel dries by oxidation and will take sixty days to cure after the twenty four hours you can sand off the lacquer if need be do body work repair. however the enamel in twenty four hours will only be dry to the touch and cannot be sanded or corrected before sixty days unless an hardener for enamel is used like dxr80 so a sealant can be put over acrylic lacquer after twenty four hours

Again, a case of the more I learn the less I know. Scotts recommendation is pretty much widely accepted but if you watch Jason Rose Rupes training as uploaded by Obsessed Garage, "RUPES Product Series: E7", at the 20 minute mark there is a discussion about this very topic which claims paints have changed and are fully cured much quicker than even as recently as 10 years ago. So, once again, who knows! I don't want to step on Scott's toes but if you're told something different by your autobody guy, this explains why...

@dallaspaintcorrectionautod8343

Jason Rose may be correct to some extent but not all body shops use the same paints.. Also applying a wax or sealant doesn't provide uv protection so his claim of the paint may be harmed if you don't apply a wax or sealant is interesting:) The clear coat provides your maximum protection and waxes and sealants can't compete.. He could be referring to water spots or bird droppings as a potential harm to the paint and this glaze will help with that.. I have just seen in Dallas about 6 months ago damage to the paint from applying a sealant to early:( It's a good rule of thumb to wait but if you feel Jason's recommendation works for you I will honor that.. I would precede with caution

If you watch Larry of Ammo NYC's video "most insane paint job ever" , at the 4:00 mark the guys doing his paint job also explain the "gas out" and "drying" process. It seems that it there are a lot of variables when it comes to this. In Larry's video his porsche was ready for clear bra and or waxing after seven days, but that was due to the process the painters used. My mother is getting body work done right now, and when she gets it back, I am going to err on the side of caution and wait 60 days before I put UFF on it. This is about perfect since the washing season will be pretty much over by then. But in that video Larry does also say what Scott says, if its your standard autobody paint job, 60-90 days is still a good idea.

There are certain types of paints out there that you can wax almost immediately after. But then plan on adding $1,000 to your paint job. I know this because Ijust got through restoring a 1970 Dodge Challenger. They asked me if I wanted that kind paint and I told them they can keep it For the extra $1,000. And no, insurance companies will not pay for that type of paint...
