I would use grease or blue Loctite. Blue Loctite doesn't make anything hard to remove. I'm not sure it would help keep the cup in at all, but it won't hurt, either. I've heard of people using red Loctite, but you need to use heat to remove. Blue Loctite is intended to prevent things from coming out from vibration. Fixed cups come out because of precession, not vibration.
