How do I go about tackling this
Here are things I need to get done on my car:
A - Bumper has to be removed, front bumper holes filled, and bumper will be repainted.
B - I have a lot of imperfections in the paint (1300 miles on the car now) especially on the hood, headlights, and that area.
C - I want to get a clearbra on the car after I fix the bumper.
In order to do this correctly and efficiently - do I have to:
Get bumper fixed (A), then get the car detailed and waxed (B), and then do (C) and then do (B) again??
I'm not really sure how the clearbra works with new paint and I'm not sure how new paint affects wax.
Please advise, experts.

1. Get whatever it needs to be fixed done (Bumper, hood, fender, or whatever it is you're not happy with, like rock chips)
2. Wait at least 2 weeks (Clear bra can't be put onto fresh painted surfaces from what I was told)
3. Get it detailed, make sure the detailer wipes everything down with rubbing alcohol aka IPA.
4. Don't put any sort of protection (wax, sealant, coating, whatever) on parts of the car you want clear bra'd.
5. Get the clear bra work done, make sure you find an installer who's careful with installing the bra.
I think that's about it.

X2 ^^^ but on the time frame .. check with the painter ... new paint can take up to a couple of months to gas off before waxed or clear bra.
1300 Miles??? What imperfections are you talking about?

Then there is a spot on the hood that looks like something discolored inside the paint. But it is smooth to the touch.
