Re: How often do you apply your spray sealant as a topper?
Every 2-4 months and then just use Carpro Reset car soap and get the LSP shine during this time. It's the only LSP I use on the 2 cars I maintain. And when I see a drop in the water behavior I reapply. Uses different products and those offered on AGO is Gyeon Wet Coat and Carpro Hydro2 lite and Sonax Spray & Seal. Then have a couple of other spray on wipe off products. Like to switch up the looks of the LSPs.

Me also. Great drying aid for me.
(Which reminds me...gotta wash my drying towels.)

Re: How often do you apply your spray sealant as a topper?
Like many here, I use something after every wash.
When I used sealants I would apply a QD or a spray sealant as a drying aid or do a post wipe-down to get rid of any water spots. With coatings I'll use Ech2O for the same purpose.
I have some CURE and started off only using it once a month and using Ech2O the other times, but got to the point I just want to use up the CURE and move on, so I started using it every wash. If CURE is anywhere as durable as they claim, my base CanCoat layer should last a really long time with all the CURE sitting on top.

About once a month with a non-AG product that is best applied wet (I include it as part of the rinseless wash). But I have also switched to EcH2o as my drying aid, so I guess every wash is also my answer!

Same. It is my final step after every wash, whether 2BM or RW. For me it's more about that final step to remove any streaks or water spots I may have left behind after drying (plus the added protection of course). I use BF Synthetic Spray Sealant (FKA WD Polymer Spray).
For my cars that don't have a base sealant, I have been trying BF Carnauba Spray Wax, which I actually ordered inadvertently...meant to buy the Instant Detailer (FKA MSID). So far I like it. Planning to alternate it with BFSSS every other wash.
My drying aid after 2BM is BFID, so technically, I always get a couple layers down after a 2BM.

Sonax Brilliant Shine Detailer once a month after a wash. This is over a base of Sonax Polymer Net Shield.

Re: How often do you apply your spray sealant as a topper?
After every wash I'll use Reload, Elixir, Echo, D156, or Nanoskin Shock as a drying aid... Right now none of my personal vehicles are fully coated (just a patchwork of different coatings and sealants) because I've been so busy at the shop so I've been kind of just using whatever I feel like to try to figure out which one I like the best. It's too hard though... I enjoy them all! One thing I've noticed is how much I enjoy the scent of certain products. It really does make a difference in the level of satisfaction while using a product if it smells nice.

Re: How often do you apply your spray sealant as a topper?
I watch the behavior of the water during the rinse and if I'm not seeing enough sheeting action, I break out the spray sealant.
