Did you guys Loctite your balls?

I used Rocksett on mine. Usually, a little goes a long way but there’s a good size cavity in the ball knob that it seemed to keep running into leaving the threads barely coated.
Third time was the charm and it’s on for good now.

I think Mystical Mermaid Magic holds particularly well, but I hear @mxgsfmdpx goes for Coral Reef.

I grabbed whatever paint pen was on top of the pile in the drawer. I think it was green. But yeah, they are all paint penned in. Otherwise they come loose easily.

I used paint pen on mine and had it loosen up. Just coarse threads? Planning on rocksett to not have to think about it.

There’s a huge void and the coarse threads need a bunch of it. My first one came loose too after paint penning.

Gotcha, I'll just try more then!

I used the black loctite 380 on mine, but since this discussion it made me think of castrating sheep with rubber bands. Unlike the sheep, the black balls haven’t fallen off yet.
