    Bathroom faucet
    My 20+ year old, double-handled, bath sink faucet leaks & my husband & I can't get the decorative cover off. We tried pipe wrench with towel / rubber gripper, tapping it to loosen, heating outside to expand & WD-40. Now letting "Lime Away" soak in. Any other suggestions?
    Thanks, M.A.

    A picture, or at a minimum, a name brand would help... ;)

    Usually the decorative cover is a plastic disk that can be popped right out if you get a knife tip under the edge
