Broadheads

Anyone using anything on your broadhead threads to help keep tight?

You can put a bit of bee's wax on the threads and they stay snug but can be unscrewed easily.

X2. Basic string wax also seems to work well.

String Wax sounds good, unless I can get me a RCH...

Blue lock tite. Just enough to keep it from coming out but easy to remove even after a season.

I use clear fingernail polish from the Dollar Store. Works good. Comes loose pretty easy. Apply a day or so in advance though cause it smells till it dries.
