We are trying to simply disconnect our garden hose from the patio wall faucet. My husband has tried different type wrenches & pliers, but nothing happened. Sprayed with W-2 & some other type of lubricant. I tried to get some solutions on line, and found this website. Can You HELP??

Only real solution... use two wrenches. The larger (18") should grip just onto and under the wall faucet itself, the smaller (14") grips the hose fitting... then can really go for it if necessary. It will come off... even if you need to mishape the hose end a bit... try this, let me know... Mark
