I use the safety wire pliers, they nick the wire slightly but I use the thicker .030" wire. If you do anything close to SCCA road racing, they want the caliper mounting bolts to be safety wired. Now when you think about it, how many cars are running around the world with non-safety wired caliper bolts? - A lot!
But if you safety wired your bolts you probably looked at them long enough to tell they were tight and nothing around them was cracked. Plus they can easily see the wire and have some assurance they are not going to fall off the car. For SCCA solo II, they don't care, mainly they don't want your battery to come loose, or wheels fall off.
