For the first 2 months or so (while the paint cures/outgasses) use something that's fresh-paint-friendly such as Meguiar's #3/#5/#7/#81/Deep Crystal Step #2, Mothers Glaze, or 3M's Imperial Hand Glaze. Don't use a wax or sealant or the paint won't cure right and thus will not attain optimal hardness.
Accumulator said it all.

10-12 weeks to be extra safe.
