I do not have a polisher, so all the advice here tells me it`s best not to coat yet. I guess I`ll just use a sealant for now or wax. I`ll get a polisher when I can and then use graphene coating.
Machine polishing is strongly recommended however if your paint is in good shape it can be skipped. What can't be skipped is claying and doing a prep wipe down before applying our Coatings.

I might add, consider either Graphene Spray or Graphene Ceramic coating your vehicle. A coated vehicle is 10 times easier to wash and dry the paint is super hydrophobic.

Welcome George..... I always use our Waterless Wash towels on glass, I believe they will help a long with our Glass Cleaner to remove the MF lint.

I have done several new cars & never had a problem either, I believe the paint is baked so that care of cure time.
Most cars I would think from the build date to delivery date would probably at least 30 days anyway.

It was the one where Joe was showing the application of the Ceramic coating and how the UV light works. I simply miss understood what he was saying and it was after doing the complete car, application and removal how we can go back with the UV light and see if there are any missed spots, not that he applied the coating to the entire car then checked for missed spots before removing it.
Gotcha, I always check each panel as I go with the light. It's easier to correct while applying than waiting until finished. At least for me anyway.

I currently use Adams Ceramic UV Spray coating on both cars. While my car spends most of it time covered in the garage, the wife's Equinox sees more use. She had a slight accident a a month ago and I just got it out of the body shop last week. I asked about the time before I could doing any thing as far as paint protection and they recommended 30 days. I may give it 60 to be on the safe side so my question is, I am thinking of apply the longer lasting full on ceramic coating instead of the spray seeing the car sees the real world more. I happen to watch a video where Joe Triegiro said that you can apply the UV Ceramic Coating to the entire car before removing it. I have always thought that you do only one panel at a time and simply give it about 2 minutes or until it rainbows then remove it or buff it. Is the spray different then the actual ceramic coating?
Do you remember what video it was? Like mentioned one panel at a time and on say the hood you want to do no more than half or even a third at a time.

I might add that I turn off at least half of my garage lights when I am coating so I can use my UV light.
With the uv light you can get the coating more uniform.

Looks good, nice job!

Looks Great Jack!

Like mentioned you may or may not have to polish after claying with Clay Mitt or clay bar.
Some clear coats are softer than others and color of the vehicles matters too.
