[Boatanchors]WTB: "Knurled" nut drivers

What has been the experience of people using these tools to remove 
knurled nuts used on toggle switches?  I have two sizes of the GC 
adjustable ones and have not had good luck using them.  They either 
score the paint next to the nut or if I put making tape around the nut 
to save the paint, I have trouble getting a good grip on the nut.

Am I missing some thing?
