[SOLVED] In need of mobo standoffs + wrench tool

I tried removing some from a brand new case and they were on tight. I used needle nose pliers to get them off, which scratched the black paint and revealed the silver color underneath it. Probably would not matter as much with silver and bronze standoffs.
From what I remember the hex head is 1/4 inch OD so a standard screw driver with removable tips can be used. Done that for years.
 
I discovered that my tech repair toolkit came with a hex bit that works with regular 6#-32 brass standoffs. Nice. It fits inside the # 5 hex bit, which probably means 5 mm. The next size up is 1/4", which is too large.
