Whenever I purchase a new car, I always....

Wash the car with dawn (to remove any crap the dealer may have applied)
Clay Bar the car if needed
Remove all those nasty swirls the dealerships car wash put into the paint with my 7424
apply a nice wax.....I would not use Zaino if your just starting out
Use a wheel wax on your wheels

Like others have said, when you buy a new car, it's been months since it was first painted.
