fender skirts

Anybody know of a way to keep the screws from backing out? Maybe put a plastic nut on the back side or something


thanks
Chris

Locktite makes products that could help. Just be aware there are different strengths for the intended application so buy one that will allow you to remove the screws if necessary. Usually it is applied to the screw threads.

They have wood screws thru a thin plastic side. Locktite will not work

Locktite 425 Assure Blue is for locking metal and plastic fasteners. I dont see why it wouldn't work.

Change your fasteners to bolts with lock washers or washers and lock nuts assuming you can access what's behind.
