How to remove difficult fiberglass shower drain nut.
I am having quite a bit of difficulty removing the nut from the drain of my fiberglass shower drain. The shower is located on the second story. I can access the underneath from the floor below due to a drop ceiling. The nut refuses to budge. It is a tight space. Can't get a good handle on it. Need advice
