Now its time for a wash. To be honest this forum has made me terrified to take it to ANY carwash for fear of what could happen. I used to always hand wash my cars as a kid but have no detailing experience at all.
Am I good to just wash (or ONR) and go for the next few months or should I be using some additional protectants after every wash? When it comes time to detailing, I think I can handle the processes outlined in the stickies. Its what to do in-between detailings that has me confused and afraid to do anything or fear of the dreaded f-up.
Your input and advice are greatly appreciated (in advance)!

Congrats for getting a good color. It will be easy to maintain. Did the stealership induce any swirls? Look at then paint in the sun.
READ!!!!!
Be gentle when washing/drying it and have someone polish it and wax it for you right away.
