Especially when using button head bolts, I've got to agree with RedCSX1's insistance on using blue loctite. Button Heads have a smaller hex in them, making it easier to deform the bolthead when removing them.
On standard grade 8 or better bolts I use red loctite, as it's easier to remove than you realize. However, the blue stuff would probably work as well.
My 2 cents,

Dan
