Blue can move with application of heat and muscle.
Easier to use nail polish if future removal is desired,

In my experience, Red Loctite IS impossible to move.

Yeah, I put Red on my trailer hitch ball. I wanted to change it and I must have beat on it with an impact wrench and used the longest breaker bar I could make and it's still on there. It would be easier to weld more material on there and grind it to shape than to get that bolt off.

Drip some acetone down into the threads and let it soak in. Use a cheater bar on your allen wrench.

A cheater on a 3/32" allen? I can twist it in half with my hands alone.

I've done it. Just make sure the little pipe nipple is long enough to reach the right angle in the allen wrench and also stick out beyond the end to provide the extra leverage.
