I suspect you are right. My car had the coating applied last year around this time and the water is not beading the same as it once was. I attribute this almost entirely to a layer of dirt / water spots sitting on top of the opticoat.

I just can't bring myself to put that swirl inducing elbow grease into remove that layer of dirt.

I think I'll leave it another year and have my detailer buff it down and apply it again. It's pretty freaking sweet only needing to pressure wash the car to keep it clean.
