First, just wanted to say thanks for this thread. I'm trying to make my way through the whole thing and the information in here is awesome. I've always tried to keep my vehicles looking good and have done a decent job but this is definitely filling in the areas that I didn't have a clue about. I've been using good products for awhile now, mostly Zaino. I just recently purchased the Porter Cable polisher and some good foam pads to help me out. My first go around with the new polisher was on my wife's Edge Sport and it's been my best success yet. I clay barred, then used some Optimum Opti Seal, and finished up with Zaino Z-2. Completely happy with the results.
Here is my question and I hope it hasn't been answered since I'm still wading through this thread. I read early on that polishing and sealing is one of the first thing recommended on a new vehicle. That was fine with my wife's Edge since it's been sitting on the lot for awhile. My truck however, was ordered and built on 2/14. I've been holding off on going through the same process with it because I've read elsewhere that you should give it 2 to 3 months for the new paint to properly cure. Is this true and if so what is a good waiting time?
