If you are going to polish the car again, you don't need to remove the sealant. Just start polishing because that will remove it. Follow up with an IPA wipe down and then reapply the sealant.
Don't really have an excuse other than maybe I'm a novice at polishing. I did try the WG FG with a white pad but didn't get the results I was looking for. Tried the SI1500 with a white pad and that removed the new swirls that were present.

Car looks great again.

Lessons learned and I now know to NEVER let the dealer do a courtesy wash upon pick up.
