Does anyone have a coupon code? Is there any NAM membership discount codes? Thanks!

No worries, your order got flagged during shipping so I'll still be giving you the discount. Postage also came out a bit less, so you'll be getting back some of that as well.

New Paint Q

Rick, i picked up this car (2011 MCS) last Thursday. My best guess it was manufactured about 8 to 10 weeks ago. Although I can't find anything in the owners manual, do you think I can get some wax on it this weekend? Some old timers say the paint should only be washed for a few months to let the paint naturally cure. What do you think? I am patiently waiting delivery of your products for use on this car. Thanks.

Absolutely! The dealer should have already waxed it unless you told them not too! Our paint is baked in the factory and cured by the time it gets to us. If you were to repaint your car in a body shop, then yes, you would need to wait atleast 30 days before waxing it because unlike at the factory where they are only dealing with a shell with no flammable liquids..they can bake the paint. Once it's assembled and a running vehicle, you can't do that.

You will have the products soon. I'm pretty it was already shipped although Stephanie was out sick yesterday, I don't think your order was affected by it.
