Just got a new 05 black TL build date on the car is 11/04. How soon can I start to protect it plan is Klasse twins and souvrain or ps 21
 
Only on aftermarket paint/repair jobs do you have to give the paint curing time, this is due to the lower baking temperatures that are used so that your plastic and rubber parts don't melt!



On a brand new car, as Scott says, you can get down to some detailing straight away!
 
Congrats on the purchase...my dad has a 04 TL and its a great looking car. On a side note, just curious is how you have a TT Supra, 05 TL, and lex Rx 300 and then a Ford Focus?? The focus is what is throwing me off alittle. (Not saying its bad thing to own a focus, it doesnt seem to flow with your current array of cars)
 
I have an 04 Porsche C4S (07/04, 240 miles) in the shop over the weekend. Still has marks from the wrapguard, and a disgusting amount of swirls.



We'll doclay, Menzerna/PC/finishing foam, AIO/SG (x2), and p21s (p21s later in the week).

I like to wait a month before waxing anything new. Many have stated that you can wax modern paint almost immediately after curing, but I like to give new paint time to dry and harden a bit before wax.

This Car has 240 miles. The owner picked it up in Cincinnati Saturday morning and essentially drove it straight to my shop!

I'm lucky enough to do some very nice cars, but this was a real treat! Plus, I took it as a real compliment that the client would leave his NEW car with me overnight - Saturday night, no less.
