I use the Tour Carbon Pro's for my indoor skate, and continually have to tighten up the axles between periods. Anyone have any suggestions on how to keep them tight?

there's stuff at the hardware store (I use the blue stuff) that coats the threads of the axle bolt and keeps it tighter. You can still loosen it when necessary...

Thanks man, yeah, I just cant ever remember what the "blue stuff" is called. I've been told Lock Tite works, but that's just super glue.

use loctite blue - that is a non-permanent one if I recall (red you probably won't be able to undo)
other brands may use otehr colours but make sure it is something that will hold the threads, but you can also undo without heating it or stripping the allen key heads.
