Stripped hex heads

I've had good luck removing the screws using an 'easy out'. I'm not sure I've got the name right. It looks like a thread tap only the threads are reversed. It digs in when turned counter clockwise.

Don't worry too much about solder. The 60/40 rosin core (NOT acid core) solder will work well. The 'silver' solder is only 2% silver and costs twice as much as standard 60/40.
