when should i do the first wax?
i've had my car for a little over a month now and haven't waxed it yet. i've heard people say to wait for a few months, but how long should i really wait? it was built 12/03.

check the owners manual. paints and their drying varies from company to company, car to car

The paint should already be fully cured when it leaves the dealer, so you should be fine.

actually, paints are 95%-99% cured when they leave the baking room, and can take several months before they are 100% cry.

considering that it was built five months ago, and sat in a port for a month or so, i would go ahead and do it
