Aha! Okay! Oh I’m trying that right now I hope it works. Thank you so much
Just to be clear, it helps stop the poly (or glue) from adhering to the threads, but any poly on the threads will still act as a mechanical wedge once it dries. So, I'm afraid it isn't a magic cure-all.
Also, just to note, the longer the poly sits, the harder it will get, making the mechanical wedge effect worse over time.
