Suppressor advise

Read in a Guns&Ammo Suppressor magazine that you should either low strength locktite or Teflon tape to keep
Suppressor from loosening up while shooting. I have read other places to use anti seize lube to keep suppressor from getting stuck on. Any ideas on this?
 
Correct fit between barrel and can is essential. Easier solution is a brake designed to be mounted tonbarelnand thread over can design like TBAC. I have both and have no issues with either loosening up. I stuck the can once with muzzle brake design. I have never used Teflon tape but on the 22 rimfire can I do use anti seize on threads. Dirty little 22 rimfire rounds.
 
I have a direct thread and use antisieze on the threads. I check it for tightness every 10 rounds or so. Sometimes it is loose sometimes it is not.
 
Ive yet to have either of my 2 suppressors come loose, sometimes Ill put a tad of builders grease on the threads other times its dry or lightly oiled. I do make sure they are tight as heck when I do stick em on.
