question for anyone....i know i shouldnt polish the car for a few months at least...but would a light waxing do any harm at first?...or should i wait a few months as well?

The swirl marks the Goobers left were probably from a buffing if it's anything like they did to mine... I took mine home, washed it with Dawn, mild mix, and then used Turtle Wax Ice liquid on it until I can do the full clay bar treatment... I've been using it on my Harley for a while and I like it...

And Congrats on the Real Car...
