Treadlocker - what to use

Hi
I generally use Loctite Treadlocker ( in a red 10 ml bottle ) on bolts such as engine cover bolts. Is this also suitable for caliper mounting bolts or should I be using something else
Thanks
Tony

You shouldn't need it on caliper bolts because they are being accessed semi regularly & if its a race bike they should be lockwired to be safe.
