Default 2 months since bonnet and bumper painted can I now polish?

I've left it as long as I can without doing anything bar washing and chamoising!

Gagging to polish the car but don't want to ruin the paint finish. What's the best pure polish to use waxless so to avoid the 'wax trap' for new paintwork?

Will Meguiers stage 2 polish be good enough? Cheers for any bufty tips

As twins above, just wax.

It should be a mint finish that wont need polishing yet.
