Aluminum instrument panel question...

[FISHBREATH]

Have any of you experienced galvanic corrosion with the fasteners between an aluminum instrument panel and the steel mounting supports? I wonder whether I sould use Loc-tite or grease on the screws when I build the panel.

Yes on a drag car in the past, I took a can of crappy spray can clear coat and sprayed the bolts, took care of the problem. Hope this helps, pretty much any coating should help or stainless steel bolts and fastenersquite possibly.
