Congrats on the new X.

1. Any curing your paint needed to do has been done while your truck made its way to your driveway. I waxed within a week.

2. I would recommmend Meguiars products. Check out their website for a car care prescription and tips. www.meguiars.com

3. Only wash your car yourself, by hand, if you care about the paint. Anything else is a risk. It's a lot easier to prevent spiderwebs and swirls than to get rid of them.

Hope this helps.
