What threadlock should i use ?

[Tom_GGG]

Ive got some bolts holding the hinge of a metal tonneau convertible cover (think something like this link below) to the car, this is the hinge that allows the cover to pivot to reveal the canvas roof.

The bolts keep come loose after about 6-8 months, i want to put some threadlock on them, but im concerned in choosing the wrong one that i may make it too strong and not be able to remove them in the future. Could someone recommend a threadlock spec for this application.

What size threads ?
If it's small stuff, try Loctite 222

Thread lock will stop it from vibrating loose, you will still be able to undoit when required

Use any soft threadlock, such as the 222 recommended above. That will stop the bolt rattling free but still allow it to be undone.
