Well I guess I will ad my 2 cents worth .
FMX you have the cut and buff right , but wax is a NO NO before 90 days as paint gases off at least that long , and waxing is a sealer and will seal off that fresh paint job and will eventually blister up , as the gases have been sealed in , with no way to evaporate .
Now make sure you use a compound and polish that is made for buffing a fresh paint job , this will make sure you dont seal off that paint job .
And like HRP said , make sure you buy the right respirator to spray these products , as they are deadly !!!!!
Also make sure you put a minimum of 3 coats of clear if using a base coat /clear coat finish , as you will usually sand and buff off 1 - 2 layers of clear getting it slick , and most paint manufacturers require 2 coats of clear for UV protection .
You would be best to get a book on refinishing a car to get some just of whats all involved , its not as easy as some say , especially if you have no clue .
Its not something someone can just type up and tell you how to go about painting a car , as every one has their own way of doing things .
Good luck
