Removing a stubborn tap valve?

Deep six sided socket.

The valves should come out relatively easy, luckily you have a deck mixer which keeps the bath tap solid allowing more leverage on the valves! I would use my large 12" Bahco spanner.

Notice the video stopped and restarted at the critical moment. The slipping spanner and swearing was cut out. He then went to the van and got a socket to loosen it then pretended

can't do that redraw (remove the taps etc) . They are fitted against a wall - see photo. If I could remove the taps Id probably just renew them.

it may be redraw if the deapthroats didnt work¬¬¬pmsl
