Which Loctite?

[moosehead]

The metric nut holding the steering rod to the port jet nozzle popped out while running last week. The rod, starboard bolt, pivot assemblies, and jet are all good. Minor fix.

Which loctite would you guys recommend for this steering rod bolt replacement? Blue, green, or some other special marine version?

Thanks

I keep Red and Blue in my tool box. The red is for longer use. The blue is for easier removal at a later time....use the red on that.

Thanks KK. Never had a use for the semi-permanent red loctite before, had only used the blue for friction style mounts on mountain bikes and whatnot. Applying the red wet as instructed made the insert much easier than a pre-dried blue. It set up overnight and is solid.
