it really depends....

if it is something where they can high temp bake it (hood, trunk, fender, etc.) then its probably ok in a week or so...but anything that cant be removed from the car should not be waxed for 30-60 days like you said...

well the only thing that got painted was my front bumper, which got baked....so am i good to wax or no?

ask the shop what temp they baked it at and for how long....

i have come to realize that most body shops "baked" isnt really that cured just cured enough to get the car out the door...
