Perry County Loctite 

To take a steel or other hard metal screw or bolt and cross thread it into a softer metal such a aluminum. Most often found after purchasing a used machine the first time you attemp to remove any bolt or scew.
I just bought this dirt bike for pretty cheap but I found out they applied "Perry County Loctite" to nearly every bolt on the machine.

Alternatively, "Boy will they be pissed when they find out I applied Perry County Loctite to that head bolt on that car before I sold it on Craigslist"!

mexican loctite

A substitute method of keeping threaded fasteners from becoming loosened due to vibration, stress, etc. Instead of using conventional liquid {loctite}, one simply assembles the fastener using dissimilar thread combinations, i.e., a coarse thread on on a fine thread bolt.
Alternatively, if the threads match, grind or hammer the threads of the bolt slightly to induce the crossthreading principle.
We didn't want the helicopter rotor to loosen unexpectedly, so we assembled it with Mexican loctite.
