Sending a friend a last minute gift and know she would love a great top coat. She has tried so many (seche vite, hk girl, poshe, julep, butter London, etc) and gets chips the next day. I use seche vite and do not have this issue.
She already uses my HG base coat (sephora formula x) and loves all brands of polish and has the same issue with every one. She has an enormous polish collection (prob well over 200 bottles),

It's not really a top coat, but I have added this to my manicure routine (I picked it up after seeing recommendations from some on this board), and it makes my manicure last much longer without chips or shrinking. I apply my normal base coat, then polish, then this Gelous nail gel, then Poshe top coat. I know it's listed as a base coat, but others on the board (pooh, I think?) and the reviews online often say to apply it following polish application. It has worked really well for me that way.
I can't think of any other top coats besides those you already mentioned, so figured I'd put this out as a suggestion. Maybe it's something your friend could try?
Is there such a thing as a gel top coat that you can use with every kind of polish? Maybe she needs something like that instead. I just don't know what it is, i've rec'd to her everything that I do and use and it still doesn't work.
