I always loosen my bleeders with a 6-sided socket wrench. I've rounded off a few with an end wrench and found that I have better success with the socket wrench. With resistant cases, I've been able to use a vise-grip, which usually destroys the bleeder valve. However, they're easy to replace. Anybody wrap their thread with teflon tape to prevent seizing? Have to be careful not to go too deep with the tape, as you don't want fragments of teflon tape in the brake fluid.
