Default Nut/Bolt Question
I have seen some builders put something on the nut/end of bolt so that they know if the nut comes loose.

What is the material that it typically used for this application?

thanks

It is a small tube available at most aircraft suppliers.

Ken,
The stuff from ACS is what I was trying to remember yesterday. I got several colors in case I wanted to use them for different things.

Thanks for showing me your 14 project. Your wings look great. Nice work!

Or the aviation aisle at Maybelline (your wife's nail polish). A lot quicker (and cheaper) to get, and you can express yourself with whatever colorful style that floats your boat.
