Loctite flavors, yellow death, gorilla snot

(Note my browser refuses to make proper paragraphs on Pprune, hence the run-on block of copy . . . ) Loctite comes in several "flavors", red, blue, some removable, some permanent, so don't just ask for "Loctite" without specifying which one you want. Alternatively, you can use a dot of 3M #801 weatherstrippng cement on fasteners, as with Loctite, the fasteners have to be clean first. This is available in two colors, yellow and black, known as "yellow death" and "gorilla snot" respectively. You can also use nylock nuts, but these get expensive and you'll need a wide selection of sizes, and are not "original". Best Regards, Echo Mike
