That said, I literally just washed my car for the first time since having it detailed, which was about a month ago.

Not quite as shiny as what I remember, but, I've also not done anything except wash it. Not sure what the detailers used (though I know it's not Zaino) - I'll probably hit a small spot of it with Zaino and see if it sticks.

Some of those polishes/waxes aren't layer-able, and will look fugly if you try to (some of it will come up, some of it won't)
I should clarify that I have a ClearBra. So I'm using shop towel on ClearBra, and that hasn't caused any issues.

That makes sense!

Just don't use anything with ammonia in it on a clear bra, unless you want a foggy bra.

so what does anyone use to remove rubber deposits on the paint and clearbra that you get after a track day?

Rubbing compound. Choose one that isn't too abrasive (like 3M). I helped Sharif get all the rubber off of his GTR once after he had a track day, and that's what we used.
