How do I use blue Locktite?

I know this sounds like a weak post, but there weren't a lot of instructions on the tube.

1- use wire brush to scrub off the old blue micro encapsulation (for say, a caliper bolt)

2- put lockitite on

Then what???

Let it dry? (doesn't seem to dry too fast)

Torque the bolt into position? (seems like the wetness of the locktite would make the torque spec inaccurate)

Not worry about it and just let the old blue crud on the threads do their thing?

Anyone have any thoughts?

thanks
