Review on Loctite Heavy Duty Threadlocker, Blue 242, 0.2 oz – Single Pack by Jerry Delic

For some reason on my Dell laptop the screws started to come loose from the hinge causing problems with the hinge and some cracks in the plastic. It took me a while to figure out that the problem wasn't the hinge or the plastic, it was just loose screws and re-tightening would only fix the problem for a couple of weeks. I haven't had any problems since putting this on the two problem screws. Several months have passed. By spending a few bucks on this I saved my entire gaming laptop. I've had no need to use this for anything else, but if your laptop manufacturer spared a threadlocker and applied it to the screws, don't listen to the rattling and ignore the problem until it gets really serious. problem like mine. There was a small blue dot on the screws where they used something, but it clearly wasn't enough. Purple might be more ideal for use with a laptop, but with those two screws trying to open/close my laptop all day, I went overboard. I have NOT attempted to remove the screws since tightening them, take that as a disclaimer. Screw lock should only be used for metal-to-metal connections, not for metal screws in plastic.
