Do I need retainer compound for press fit bearings?
 
Hello,

I have a 700 size glow heli, and I want to know if a retainer compound is necessary for the bearings. Some bearing are a bit loose in the fitting, so I assume I need compound for those. On the other hand, there are bearings that are press fit and take a lot of work just to remove, would I need retainer for these bearings? If so what retainer compound would be best?

Thanks
