Unhappy Loose Shift Knob?

Okay so I have an aftermarket shift knob in my AT tl, and it has become loose and just keeps turning and doesnt stop. If you keep turning it it just starts pushing through the top cover. I was wondering how can I make it tighten up and stop it from turning?
I was thinking maybe putting some kind of glue like material on the threads?

Any help is much appreciated!

Never heard of this problem before.

Why don't you try taking the shift knob off and looking at the inside of it to see if there's something wrong with the threading?

You don't know what Locktite is? Uhmmm, OK:

I'd suggest Locktite Blue. Lowes, Home Depot or anywhere mass market adhesives are sold.
