Tring to disconnect the U shaped pipe under bathroom sink...

[stevelikesapint]

I am having tremendous difficulty removing the u shaped pipe from nder my sink. I have used all sorts of tools including a boa but it keeps sliding.

Anyone got any tips

Cheers

What's the pipe and joint made from, for a start? Can you provide more details of why you can't remove it? David
