Default Loctite Question - A multitude of options!

Was cleaning up some of the bolts that I've removed from the car and noticed that several of them have green Loctite on them, so decided I should get some for when it comes to putting it all back together again.

Just been on eBay and they come in the multitude of variants and colours. Of those, only 278 and 290 are green. Reading through the Henkel Adhesives site, I reckon 278 is the most appropriate one to go for, as 290 requires heat to remove.

For those who have used Loctite, is this the most suitable:
