Some loctite thread lock adhesives will attack some plastics.
I used loctite to secure the threads on a rear view mirror and a month
later the mirror fell off. The threads were still tight but the plastic
around them was all gummy and soft.
YMMV of course depending on which plastic and which loctite.
I like the nail polish idea......
