I am trying to remove the round cover on a tap to get to the tightening screw. It used to screw off but is stuck fast. Any ideas how to loosen this. Many thanks
 
Pour boiling water over then try wearing rubber gloves (the kind with the little bobbles give a better grip).

How do I remove a rounded off screw from kitchen mixer tap?
I need to replace the washer of my kitchen mixer tap as it is leaking. I was able to remove the spout once by unscrewing the screw on the back of the tap. However now I can't remove it again as it seems I must have used the wrong screw head and have rounded off the head. Please see attached...

Repairing a dripping tap - what’s next?
Hello folks, I’m trying to fix this slow leaking tap myself and I’m stuck here. How do I dismantle it further to replace whatever needs replacing to fix the drip? (The chrome ring round the top will not unscrew by hand.) Many thanks
