Is it been kept inside????
After my respray i didnt apply any products for 8 weeks as the paint needs to breath to fully cure even when baked on.
Just keep washing it correctly if the car is going to be used in 6 weeks of the paint being applied.

Dont cover it either, as the paint will sweat and can react if the solvents aren't allowed to escape.
