I wouldn't use bees wax for the rotor bolts. Use Loctite blue. If you have it, boiled linseed oil works pretty well too. Once it starts to cure it creates a sticky semi-hard bond between the two metal surfaces just like Loctite does but you can still loosen the threads with firm wrench pressure but they won't vibrate loose.
