Car parked outside - Opticoat question

Hi. I live in the wonderful San Francisco Bay Area where $1M gets you an old house with a detached garage that you cannot even park your car in (because the driveway is too narrow, as the house was built in the 1920s where apparently this wasn't an important item).

Anyways, my question is I'm wondering the pros/cons of Opti-Coating my car.

- Since I park outside, I figure this might another good protective layer on top of my clearcoat, so better protection for UV long-term
- However, since my car is parked outside on the driveway, it does get it's nightly share of the lawn sprinklers .........does spotting occur on Opti-coating?
- Other option would be to do the traditional sealant route --> How often does the car need to have sealant reapplied?

Any tips or feedback would be appreciated. Thanks.
