Default Devcon Blue Threadlocker

Hello

I'm trying to use Devcon Blue Threadlocker bought at LHS to secure the prop nut on my Zagi. The product label says that working time for this threadlocker is 10 minutes, handling time is 1 hour, and that it shoud cure in 3 hours. I applied it at 10pm yesterday and this morning at 10am it is still in liquid state. Frankly, I can't see any difference in viscosity between the stuff on my prop nut and the stuff in the original tube. If I turn the motor on the blue stuff will just start flying around. Could anyone please explain what's going on? I did shake the tube will before applying the threadlocker, as instruction suggest. Maybe I was to generous, applied to much and should just wait longer? But the fact that it didn't seem to cure at all in about 12 hours (!) just doesn't look right to me.
