The best way to avoid this problem is to buy hoses with brass fittings and not anodized aluminum, which is getting harder to find these days, it seems 9 out of 10 hoses on store shelves have aluminum fittings and the problem is that oxidizes when in contact with copper or brass and even faster when moisture is present

I really struggled with mine. Not sure if the WD40 just needed some time to penetrate or what, but after sitting there for a while I did try the 2 wrenches and I got it off!! Thank you so much for sharing ❤

Tip #3 is to make sure your are turning it the correct way.

Won’t work in most cases. When galvanic corrosion occurs, as suggested by this video, when a metal like aluminum corrodes onto chrome plated brass, it will not come loose with wd40 and two wrenches. Most of the time the hose connection is will have to be cut and broken off, and sometimes the faucet must be replaced because even that won’t work.
What the video SHOULD tell folks is to remove the hose when not in use.

Imagine paying someone to fix something that only needed 2 wrenches

Thank you for these tips. Wondering what brand and sizes of those wrenches? Thanks in advance.

I like to put a bit of silicone grease on the threads before tightening, saves me future headaches👌

I've heard that you can warm up the connection with a lighter or small torch prior to spraying WD-40. While the connection cools off it'll suck the lubricant deeper into the threads. I personally haven't tried this yet.

This is why I use one of those plastic connectors with the valve and it’s plastic connect the hose at the end of the Spicket

Another tip for stuck just about anything, is using a heat gun. The expansion and contraction often breaks a seized connection.

Contaminating the water system do you have a backflow preventer on there?

[Anthony-lbgx]

The WD did nothing lol The key is the 2 pairs of channel locks. It’s a must to hold back to loosen.

Had the same problem with my hose. Not once but twice. When you have a brass fittings and a aluminum hose, this will bond together and will not work I tried w d 40 blaster oil. Vinegar blow torch finally took off the valve and hose. And threw it away

He's the owner, he just corrected his mistake, on video 😆

I'm not being a critic but WD 40 isn't a penetrating lubricant it's not going to break the galvanetic corrosion. And even if it was a corrosion busting lubricant you need just let it sit for about 45 minutes or so.

[communitygardener]

Doesn't hurt to preemptively put lubricant on faucet threads and the light bulbs threads on outdoor fixtures.

[davidaix]

WD-40 is not really a penetrating oil I'd recommend Kroil

[silverdropstang]

I can confirm no wrenches were used in the making of this video😂

I learned this the hard way, always, I repeat, always buy hoses with brass fittings on them! When you buy hoses with aluminum, and you will end up with this problem, almost every time!
