Due to some small dings & dents, and (mainly) a ton of new chips from being dumped on by a very large gravel truck on the highway, my ride's getting completely repainted.
Is it OK to apply Zaino or Klasse SG to a freshly painted car or should I wait a bit before doing so?

most asked question ever. Search. Ask the person painting your car, they should know and they all vary. I just got my bumper repainted and they say wait 60 days.

It's 90 days. Wait 90 days. All the paint manufacturers agree that it's 90 days.

You can wash right away, just use alot of care and a two bucket method (which you should use anyways) as the paint will be chemically "soft".
You can use a product such as Meguiars #7 Show Car Glaze to help add a little protection and keep the paint well nurished. Its a little tricky to apply, but it does a good job. However, being an oil based glaze, it will need to be reapplied frequently, until the paint cures...
