removing loc tite from threads??

2000xlt · Apr 21, 2007

I need to remove some loc tite from the threads of a few bolts, the bolt are out and the loc tite that was on them "the blue 272" turned white from the heat. I Have them soaking in some denatured alchol now. What do you reccomend?

Thanks

A wire brush would work well to clean out the loc tite.

i found some at the hardware store, these had about 1/16th " of loctite be the head it was so hard i did not even bother trying to clean em. plus i did not want to risk messing up the threads.

Thanks for the tips though
