i tried a little heat but didnt want to melt the plastic inside the braided lines! ive given them a good soaking and left them for tonight ill try them in the morning.

also there is a product made by 3m i think it freezes the material and works really really well on stubborn bolts/fixings etc. smells like deep heat too... :lol:

G MAN that 3m stuff sounds good..any idea what its part number is??

 

i recently did my brake pipes and found the brake pipe spanner rounded em off easily, i had best results with a big pair of good visegrips to crak it open and then used a spanner
