I have noticed that the order in which panel screws are removed can be important. For example, on my K3, the rear left top panel screw is easy to remove if removed early, but much harder if left to last. Not noticed this yet with either bottom panel.
I have a supply of model railroad flat black paint that keeps my screws looking good. Shoe dye works, but not as well. Permanent marker pens usually leave a faint reddish tinge to the black.
