So I ordered a bunch of unions, Spears. They all came hand tightened except one. It can't be budged. I tried it, i found the biggest man I could, (neighbor) we can't get this thing apart. I tried wrenches with a wash cloth to protect the pvc, no luck. I will have to seriously mess this thing up to get it apart. Should I just exchange it for another one? Or is there a trick? Thanks! Maybe this should go into the NOOB section...
