Default Wax upon receipt?

I've read some conflicting things about waxing a new TT. So what are peoples thoughts about this? Has the paint already cured and is it safe to wax right away?

Default maguires wax

Anyone like their wax? I've been using this on my Durango and used to use it on my Conquest TSI.

Default If you're used to the Meguiars process...

and are using the high end Pro Series or Medallion system, you should be fine. The red bottle stuff is not good enough for the TT, though (unless it's the paint & body scrub).

Default According to www.carcareonline.com...

waxes with polymers may tend to cloud German paint finishes. The Medallion & Meguiar #26 being two of them. They sell Meguiars and most of the other ones, so they shouldn't have any axes to grind...
