Probably. When was your car produced?

I've been told 60-90 says before any wax on new paint.

Not sure about Zaino though.

Maybe some paint guys will chime in.

Maximas are built in Japan, right? If the car you are getting has been on the lot of any time, it has been at least 30 days since it has been painted which is plenty long enough. Today's high-temp baking mean the paint is pretty much set by the time it cools down. It doesn't "breathe" like older automotive paints. Anyway, go for it.

You can use anything on new paint as long as it is not silicone based. IIRC.
I don't think Zaino is silicone based. IIRC
