People,
I have one of these valces fitted under my bath:-
http://www.screwfix.com/p/22mm-full-bore-isolating-valve/43961
It has been in place for around 3 years and is seized. When I try to turn it with a screwdriver the valve turns around 1/8 turn and then won't turn any more except to the open position. Trying to turn it more than 1/8 turn results in the screwdriver jumping out of the slot.
I would appreciate guidance on how best to unseize it.
I have some light oil, WD40 and spraygrease around the house.
Cheers
Paul
