Default LF: Buy or Borrow RO membrane removal tool

Hey,

I believe it's time to change my RO membrane and I can't get the cap off.
Does anyone have the tool to change the membrane, it is similar to the tool to remove the canister housings.



similar to that, except smaller.

All good. Heated it up with a hair dryer.
Easy peasy.

I have found that channel lock pliers work well.
I have two that you could borrow next time

Thanks for the offer, but I tried a pair and it kinda just chewed up the ridges of the plastic cap!
