Default New paint

Ok I just got my car back yesterday from paint, and im a bit confused at how to take car of it. Ok first the painter said to obviously not wax it because the paint needs like 90 days to harden and evaparate and wax would cover up the pores in the paint. He said this is why i need to use dish soap to wash my car :s because new car wash all has wax in it. Ive heard that dish sopa isnt good at all though for your car. Unfortunately this is my dd so it will see rain ahhh lol. so how can i keep it clean with out hurting my nice new paint.

Pretty sure dish soap isn't recommended for washing your car purely because it will take off any was already on there. I would just follow whatever the painter told you to do.
