The set of auto-adjusting channel lock type pliers (robogrip, I think
they're called.) someone gave me fro christmas a few years ago came
with a set of rubber boots to keep from marring things. They'd work
fine on an antenna.
If you do this a lot, snap-on (and probably others) sell an antenna
wrench. It's got an open-end wrench or two, as well as pin type
spanners for just about every auto antenna in one tool.
