Blue Loctite, where if at all?

After removing/cleaning rear disc caliper, I added a bit of blue loctite to mounting threads. Bad idea?

Over time, most everything on my bikes is, at various times, removed, cleaned and greased. Loctite can make parts difficult to remove, possibly striping hex heads. So I don't use it except on some things like brake mountings. Is the blue stuff a bad idea in general on any bike bolts? Rather, I should instead just set the bolts properly tight and check stuff now and then for looseness.
