How do I keep suppressor cap tight?

I have a direct threaded DA Nomad Ti. Seems every time I shoot and warm it up, when I go to remove it the cap on suppressor comes loose much easier than barrel attachment threading.
Is there a trick? I tried Teflon tape which did not seem to be the ticket. I am assuming blue loctite would loosen when the unit heats up shooting. Thanks

Tighten it when it’s warm.

Shoot enough to carbon lock that sucker together.

My one take apart can becomes carbon locked after a couple hundred rounds if I don’t work the threads
 
I’ve used Roksett on muzzle devices and suppressors before. Some manufacturers spec it as the way to ensure things don’t come apart from vibration and heat cycles on muzzle devices. Being water soluble makes it a great option.
 
If it just comes loose easier that’s alright as long as it’s still seated. I’d start to worry if it actually started loosening up on its own.
 
Especially since it’s just the endcap and not as crucial to alignment like the mounting system.
