I’m gearing up to secure my first stainless grubscrews into aluminum 280Ah terminals with Loctite Red and see that the instructions state that Primer is needed when both surfaces are ‘inactive metals.’
Stainless is an inactive metal and so is Aluminum, so it seems like primer is required.
But I believe I’ve heard from many who have used Loctite Red on this board that primer is not needed if you have cleaned the threads with Acetone (which I have done).
So advice for a Loctite-newbie appreciated - do I need to bother with primer after threads have been cleaned with Acetone and dried?
