    Bonnet nut on kohler 10412 kitchen faucet
    I am trying to remove the bonnet nut. The instructions say it is easy to do by just turning it counterclockwise. I cannot budge it. Any suggestions?

    This is a brass to brass thread so no rust. It will unthread with a little muscle. Try some WD-40 on it. Good luck, Tom
