    New Paint

    Just got my car back from the body shop and had the front end and hood repainted. I'm gonna be doing a lot of highway driving on a trip this weekend and wondered if it would be alright to use the bra. I know they tell you to wait awhile and let the paint totally cure before waxing/polishing, I was wondering if the bar would effect the new paint at all???

    If the body shop used a heat lamp to cure the paint, your good to go.

    Call the body shop to determine if they used a heat lamp or not.

    If not, you'll need to wait about 30 days for au natural curing.
