Should I use loc-tite on the crown guard screws to keep them from coming out? I was thinking about taking aout the screws and putting the loc-tite on the screws (to coat them) and then re-install the crown. Will this keep the screws from coming loose?

You *can* do that, sure. I would make sure to use the non-permanent type of LocTite, though.

I've never used it and have yet to have any problems with ANY of the PAMs I've owned.

Thank you.

Thank you for your replies. I just keep reading various posts and it seems like people are losing their CG screws. I was wondering how? And, how to avoid losing a screw. Thanks again.
