Just got my hardtop painted and wanted to know if Meguiars gold class is safe if not what would you recommend

 

You should not use any wax/sealant on fresh paint for 30 to 90 days.
The solvents need time to outgas for the paint to fully dry and harden.
Ask the painter how long they recommend you wait.

I've used Meguairs #7 show car glaze on fresh paint.

 

^^^yes. Do not wax it yet. The paint needs time to fully cure. Leave it alone for 90 days especially since it's winter and there's not much sunlight.

 

The painter said to wait 60 days and I was also reading that once the water beads off the paint that means the clear coat is good and I can wash it like normal. As far as soap he told me I can't use any kinda of soap that has wax or synthetic blends

 

as s2kpa says, you gotta wait for the new paint to "gas out"... most glazes are safe for new paint (the label will say), but i agree with the posts above- just wait the 60 days and then you can do anything you want to it (i would use a good synthetic and top it with carnauba).
