How to check if you got opticoat on?

Is there a way for us to check whether the car has an opticoat on certain parts of the car or not (exterior). I have a feeling that my car wasn't opticoated in all places...

Spray water on it and see where it beads.

Misting with a spray bottle, or the mist setting of your garden hose attachment is most effective.
