First time "quick access" patch, is it really needed only once?

Hmmm... Let Me Explain It To You.
You Apply Quick Aceess At Time Of Flashing MAIN. Thats The Only Way To Apply Quicaccess Patch.
Once The Quick Access Patch Is Applied, It Enables You To Add New Patches Without Flashing MAIN Any More.
If By Chance You Need To Reflash Your MAIN, It Will Remove All Patches Including Quickaccess So You Need To Start Over. I Hope Its Clear:)

What if the only patch I want to add is the SIM lock patch. Do I still need the quick access patch? Should I apply it everytime I do a new reflash?

No, You Dont Need Quick Access Patch. Well If Thats You Query, Use Every Method For Quickaccess Patch Except Quick Acess Itself. Confused...:D Let Me Make It Detailed:
1. Open SeTool, Select You Phone And Add Your MAIN To Files
2. Now Place A Check In "Bypass DB2020 Security".
3. Now Add Your Generated Patch File (the vkp you generated from Remove Sim-Lock Patch Generator" To Misc Files.
4. Hit Flash And Follow Instructions.
5. Wait For The Long Procedure And You Are Done. You've Unlocked The Phone Without Quick Access.
