If its opticoat pro. Just give it a good two bucket car wash and it should be just like new. Polishing it will remove the opticoat, so I don't think you need to polish.

It should be fine after a nice wash. I just opti-coated my wheels last week. Stuff is amazing!

The only way it's going to come off is if you polish it off. You should be okay. It would be a good idea to decontaimnate the car with Carpro Ironx and clay bar.
