do they take the whole bumper off, strip the paint, and then repaint it?

mj42jackson

they did it for free. the dealer scraped my car and paid for the repaint. i don't know how much it would have been

A month is conservative, some might say 6 months

time has changed and the materials they use are a lot better. They also now bake your paint on at a lot of places. They colorsand and polish and wax the fresh paint right after it dries. I would think if you use caution and do a light easy coat, no harm in my book. They also I think claybar your car to get the overspray off on fresh paint.

Your decision tho.

I'll bet you it's waxed already...mine were when I got them done...you could tell

to be honest w/ you , id wait at least six weeks till you touch the paint w/ wax...

I won't look much different waxed now or a month from now!

It's painted with polyurethane, the paint cures properly in about a month with oxygen bonding.....air=oxygen, wax blocks air...get the message? I would wait!
