Re: LocTite Base?
Blue is good if that's what you have. Just use a little bit. Put it on a toothpick and apply to screws. The purple is ideal. Made for the really small screws like mounts have.

Blue is what you should use. Red will come off with some heat. You can transfer heat through the wrench/driver without messing up the base finish.

I used blue on the base screws of a JP one piece mount and because the torx bit is so small, two of the four screws stripped out. I did manage to get them out with an easy-out.

I have used red in the past. When you decide to remove it, you simply apply heat to the head with a solder iron and it will break the bond. I wouldn't use red if you are going to take it on and off more than a few times, (slow process)
