Thread lock

[CatmanV2]

On the hands of the experts, can someone tell me a non-permament threadlock, please? Needs to stop a screw from working its way loose, but needs to be able to be undone without much deliberate force.

TIA

Im not an expert but it isnt rocket science- no offence intended. It can get quite confusing as there is a raft of loctite products that are designed for various applications across a range of strengths, exposure to heat,and materials etc...
But to keep it simple. My vote would be Loctite 222
Loctite rate their thread lock - low/medium/high strength...
