Chris(WA),
If you mean those soft headed screws used on Hondas etc, I will give you, and everyone else, a tip for getting these undone easily without resorting to brute force or an impulse screwdriver. As most are sat on a flat ally cover you simply tap the head sideways slightly with a flat punch and the then unscrew them. Simple as that. Works most times with no damage to anything "cept a small mark on the screw, if you are not too careful.
Lots of allen screw headed bolt sets were/are sold as replacements because the screws were hard to get undone without damaging the heads. If only the owners knew how to get them undone without any difficulty!
Regards, RAB
