You should be able to wash your car as normal when you get it back. Wait a couple months to wax or zaino so the new clearcoat has time to completely cure. For the time being get a bottle of ppg perfect-it dark color glaze. That stuff is the shiz.

wash as often as you like, no zaino for 30 days, you should start from scratch when you decide to do it
