    Replacing Shower Knobs
    I am trying to replace some old shower knobs but can't get them off. I have unscrewed the screw and tried to pry them off but they won't budge. Do they not come off or are the just stuck because they are old. If they are stuck what can I use to get them unstuck?

    If you have removed the retaining screw the knobs should pry off. Good luck, tom
