Loctite starts to get loose at ~400F. there is some solvent available too. Do a search on google for loctite solvent, and options will appear.

yep - heat will do the trick. i had red loctite i wanted to remove, and loctite says right on their website to heat it to a certain high temp, and it would allow it to break free. i have a heat gun - works great, although i like duster's soldering iron idea better as it's a more concentrated area and won't inadvertently heat areas you don't want hot.

Something I found out is don't heat up the pieces if one of them is cf as it bends.

Or plastic. It melts. I use the solder gun method. Works like a charm.

Good to know since we all use it on our vehicles. I had never run into that scinario of having to remove anything with red locktite. So let us know if that does the trick.
