Just got my Car repainted black same color as before and i notice there is some orange peel in some areas while good in other areas. At first i thought he was only going use a single stage paint job since toyota mr2`s were mostly all single staged but i found out he used clear coat also. My questions- Is it safe for me to use my porter cable with klasse AIO or 3M rubbing compound right away? The car just got painted 2 weeks ago and it was a $2000 dollar paint job but the painter didn`t have a heat baker to dry the paint.

You can polish right away, as long as you use body shop safe products. AIO and 3M should be fine.

Don`t wax after you have polished. :)

True, NO WAX



Let the paint cure, gasses escape. I`d give it about 4-6 weeks. Polishes without fillers should be fine.
