Typically, how much blue Loctite is the right amount? The guy at Carquest says one drop is enough. The package shows the whole end of the bolt covered with blue. If the threads are clean on both the bolt and the nut, how much are you usually supposed to use to do a professional job? (Right now I'm thinking of the bolts that hold on the front calipers.)
