Need something in between Locktite Blue and Locktite Red. Holds strong but can be removed W/O heat...
Suggestions!
 
Robert,
From low to high:
222 purple, low strength
242 blue, medium strength (most common blue)
243 blue, medium high strength, oil resistant. (the one you want)
262, 271(most common red), 272, 277 red, high strength needs heat to undo...
green types, for loose fit assembly. Some of these are really permanent.
There's a bunch of them, but it is not easy to find all of them locally.
 
there's also a product I've used called vibra tight (vibra -tite?)...you paint it on the threads, let it dry, and then assemble. It seemed to us to work better than loctite. No need for heat to disassemble and parys could be re-tightened.
