Nobody can answer this for me because the product hasnt been around long enough. The only answer i have gotten is that it needs to be polished off, and the whole process repeated including paint correction...
Mild polish will take it off. Easy peasy. BTDT. It's not like you're not going to polish before you put any sealant or wax on unless you like highlighting the scratches. Ceramic coating is nice in that you only have to do this once every 18-24 months instead of every 6 months.
