So I just sanded and painted my wheel well areas with the matching color and it matches pretty much perfectly, ive just got some overspray and i also want to use a rubbing compound to buff it. How long should I wait before I clay bar and buff? Also could I rinse the car with water now? its pretty dry i just want to get all the **** off the car lol thanks
 


I'd wait a few days before spraying any water on it, or driving it. Let the clear cure.

I've always waited 30 days before I've hit anything I painted with any sort of buffing/clay/wax, so that the paint is fully cured.
 
Alright, I just wanted to clay it now because i got overspray all over the areas i painted and figured it wouldnt come off in a few days if i wait to clay
 
okay cool, i was actually surprised how it came out, it doesnt look perfect but better than before, had a big rust hole by the gas cap, spent today bondoing it, sanding, and painting, you can tell theres something there but looks a **** load better hahahah
