Default ***Need Some Advice*****

My buddy hooked me up with a paint job for my civic.... but to make a long story short he couldnt let it dry over night and i had to pick it up asap the car dried a total of 3 hours. On the way home the paint picked up dust particles, bugs etc. My question is whats the best way to get that stuff out and how long should i wait till the paint is totally dry to do it? thanx

wet sand with 2000 grit paper...You really should've let the paint cure before driving around. Gotta do some better planning when painting a car
