Walker Audio SST and E-SST dry to form a seal on the connection and protect the connection from oxidation. If you don't disturb the connection, my experience suggests that it should stay in good condition indefinitely without retreatment. (Walker Audio makes no claims about this, it's just my experience with it.)
If you do retreat the connection, Lloyd recommends removing the existing SST first (isopropyl alchohol takes it off easily), then reapply.
