Unless you encounter a left-hand thread:)

For a bath tap? Talbot - you are one wild geezer.
I didn't say that though did I, Mosaic?
But that's what the question was about......!
The question had been answered.

Sorry I typed my answer to your advice yesterday,but the send buttom would not send it for me.
Thankyou to PiedPiper,Mosaic & stuey,I have tried to do it anticlockwise and clockwise,and I put WD40 on as well to no avail.

Thankyou all for your help much appreciated.
Let the WD sink in - you could even do the same with olive oil, or baby oil

Also, wrap a cloth round your hand when you have another go.

Sometimes older taps with brass inner components cease up completely and will never budge even unto the end of time.
