Racing practice is to use new fasteners when possible (studs, bolts, etc.)
and measure stretch as a backup for torque. You are really trying to measure
clamping force and stretch can be a better indicator of what you are getting
with new studs and bolts of a known grade and quality.

Just a thought

I've heard you can mix rubbing achohal with it and the achohal will
evaporate out after you have spread it.  You might test that on something
first.
