    Which loctite? help

    it turns out my mag is not leaking in the back which i thought it was and replaced the piston o-ring.... repeatidly
    it is actually leaking at the quick disconnect, i'm assuming the loctite has wore off or something, how can i re-apply it? and with which kind of loctite?

    help will be greatly appreciated, thx
    ...and then i'm like, "Whoo, PARTY!!"

        where on the quick-disconnect is it leaking from? the part where the two pieces connect or where the QD's connect to the hose?

          Depending on the type of loctite that is in place now, a good wrench and some muscle should take if off. Otherwise, you might have to add a little heat with a hair dryer or heat gun.

          To clean/prep for reapplication, I suggest you invest in a small dental pick and gently scrape off the crusted loctite remains from the threads. You can get one from a hardware or auto parts store... or gank one from your dentist during your yearly checkup
