Just used blue on a part. A few days later I had to undo that bolt but was told I did not have to reapply, that it was already on there. Wouldn't I have to reapply some more each tiem I loosened the bolt?

The answer is yes ,you do have to reapply it,plus if its a bolt that you are using a torque wrench on ,as Pat stated you must clean the old stuff off and apply new.
