I haven't gotten to doing it yet but last year Grant told me he'd designed that seatpost binder to be tough enough to even withstand using a pair of pressure or locking (or whatever they're called) pliers if you needed them in a bind if the bolt broke and that's all you had. So, aside from stripping the paint which we want to avoid, just get anything that fits in there and still allows the bolt to go through. It should be very hard to really damage it.
