About to pick my car up after getting bumper and quarterpanel repainted after being scraped up by someone. Any thing special I need to do to help preserve the new paint job? Mainly concerned as the pain on my trucks tailgate has come apart several years after a paint repair and don't want to see that happen again on the car.

What did the shop say? What paint/clear coats did the shop use?

Different paints/clear coats require different types of "attention."

Catalyzed paint cures completely in an hour, but ordinary enamel will stay soft for months.
