Question Wing bolt removal

I just finished attaching the wings for the first time using temp hardware bolts. All went well, but it occurs to me that removing those lower bolts could be a problem (they fit pretty tight). Has anyone come up with an easy way to get those bolts out?

Have a helper move the wing up and down... side to side... they should come out fairly easy. A little LPS would help too.

Check out the RV-8 pages. I posted a spot with pictures of how to accomplish this with the real bolts.
