give it 48hrs to be sure. then after you apply clear, dont touch it for 3wks minimum. you can wash the car, but try not to rub at it or anything.
Sorry to be the voice of doom here, but you need to find out if the paint the shop is using is water based or solvent based. The nail polish may not be the best thing to apply to water based paint.

You need to just take a deep breath and relax on this. Let the guys fix the paint before worrying about clearing it. If you are going to put clear bra over the spot anyway, you'll never that it was never clear coated.

When I painted the backings for my Z badges, I didn't clear them because I was applying clear bra to them.

They were a PERFECT match to the rest of the car.

Pint you've got way too much going for you to continually stress over these types of things and making yourself sick. IT IS NOT WORTH IT!

I want to see a smiley face from you young lady!
