would the blue not be sufficient enough? I'd like to be able to get them out if I have to as well!

if you guys think the blue won't hold up then of course I would rather use the red..

I would use a smaller amount of the red than you would of the blue

those bolts are butter friendly

Blue will work just fine. You actually don't need anything on them.
