I don't want to be that guy, but, I was taught that you're not supposed to buff a car for at least 3 months (normally 6) because the paint has to de-gass.

Most paints are water based now, takes no time to dry these days....

I thought it had to do with letting the paint finish hardening before you start cutting into it with polishes as it's still technically "Soft" for a while after its dry.

Think of paint like skin, kind of. When a car gets freshly painted, or when you buy a new car, the paints generally still in a stage of de-gassing, where all of the gasses from the paint are slowly releasing. If you start covering it in polish/wax,  you clog the "pores" on the paint and get imperfections. 

I've always been taught not to wash a car for 3-6 months after a paint job, although some paint shops have developed baking techniques to get the gasses out faster.

I would rather douse my genitals in hot sauce before dragging them through broken glass and razor blades, than drive a magna

 

 

Actually, I might do that anyway

So technical. I was thinking if you just went really really fast the air would dry it out?
