You would think a wing skin fastener would be be torqued in with blue thread lock or something.

Can’t use anything on aircraft fasteners as it would give an unreliable torque value.

Been a few years since I owned or played with airplanes.
On the Cessna aircraft I had, screws were used on inspection panels. The skin was riveted to airframe .
