    Brylcreem.

    To keep the caps removable, I use a tacky wax that was made for posting notices. Sort of like blue tac but less noticeable, since it is transparent in thin layers.

    Tiny amount of superglue.
    Or what I did: wrap some hobby tape around them so they are in just a little tighter.
