Default Rain!! HELP

I gave the stang one coat of cleaner wax, two coats of sealer/glaze, and one coat of finishing wax on Sunday the 16th. I painted the calipers and the car looked immaculate. Well it poured down rain today, all day, real heavy, and is supposed to for the next few days. Any expert paint guys know what to do? I was planning on just waiting til it stopped raining, then applying another finishing coat and hoping it wil harden nicely. A little rain is fine for wax to make it set, but a lot is no good. The water still beads, but some areas of the body are beginning to sheet with the amount of rain. What to do?

Not really confused, just wondering what the best way to keep the wax on the car. Should I wash it before the finishing coat? or just dry it off. <edited><editID>95Stealth302</editID><editDate>37943.439224537</editDate></edited>

You should just re-wax the car, won't be worth all the struggle.
