@oldnick should I remove all of the old threadlock before applying or just apply over what's left? it's fiddly to get it out so would rather just apply over the top if that's possible?

Given it's a bike not some NASA probe costing bajillions I'd use a fine wire brush to clean loose gunk out of the bolt threads, then if it threads in smoothly you are good to go 🙂
