You won't last or be decent? Both of those are mostly up to you. If you want to last, you can; if you want to be decent, you can too.

I've never heard 3 months before. I always tell my customers no wax for 30 days.

Make sure you use an adhesive promoter. You might want to just get a can of paint mixed up at a auto supply shop. It will hold up better than the Duplicolor and should match better if they have the coputer that reads you paint.
