do you guys have this problem? everytime i bash my t i end up loosing a few screws. i did'nt wanna use loctite because its almost impossible to remove the screw when its time to clean. so what i use is clear fingernail polish. it works pretty good havn't lost any screws lately, and its easy to remove the screw when its time to clean. i got the idea from upgrading my airsoft gearboxes. just thought i'd share.:banana:
 
I just always go thru and tighten all the screws before and after a bash session and so far so good....
 
Hell yeah I lose screws It's the nature of the nitro beast. Lost two out of my engine mount the other day. That would not have been good at all. Hmm clear finger nail polish. That is an interesting one. Loc tite is very hard for me to remove as well and I have the green kind. Anyone else's thoughts on this finger nail polish idea???
 
Never heard of finger nail polish. I just use blue locktite. It works for me...you just gotta find the right amound to use.
 
i use blue thread lock, about 1 drop on each screw and it holds those screws right in there on metal to metal contacts.

later
