I'm replacing the keel bolts on my 1987 Catalina 22. I'm using type 316 stainless steel. My question; should I coat the threads with anything? If I use a loctite which type? Which primer? Or should I use anti-seize? Or nothing?

I have a 1973 Catalina with keel issues and tried posting my questions here but had not received any responses. So I went direct to Catalina in California and they were extremely helpful. Here is their email address:
