Use BLUE locktite.  Not the red!  If you use a miniscule amount of BLUE
locktite, like a drop off the end of a needle, you will have a chance of
getting the screw out if you ever need to.  The red stuff will make it
unmoveable.....  (The BLUE is what is used on Disc Brakes)

Another possibility is what we used to use way back before blue locktite
was available, nail polish.  Just as the old Bryl Cream ads said, "a litte
dab will do ya"
