You should be able to wash but don't wax! You can use glaze though.

Looks pretty good. I got my car painted at that same Maaco around 1999/2000 and it was a pretty decent job for what I paid.

What package did you get? Never seen a Maaco shop remove doors, lights and plastics before. It's almost time for me to get the red 89 done and considering using this shop again.

it was my choice to remove the doors, gfx, bumpers, etc. and i know the owner so he let me come in on a saturday and take it all apart, then the next monday i came in and helped sand some of it, and that was pretty much the highest package you can do.

I've got the same color on my car, and about he same work needed. After I get the new engine in in the spring I want to get it painted.

How much did they charge you if I my ask?
