Red Loctite is considered "permanent" and usually requires a torch to soften it to remove bolts in the future. If you use blue Loctite and torque the bolts to 35 FP, they're not going to loosen up on you. Red Loctite is okay for the caliper mounting bolts, but uncessary for caliper bolts.
I always clean, inspect and grease my caliper pins. Removing the rubber seals is super easy to do and unless they're cracked/dry rotted wont hurt them. Stuck and worn out caliper pins are the primary reason for uneven brake pad wear.
