Cannot remove bathroom set screw in handles
Delta Roman I think 2001 faucet for jacuzzi tub. Hot water set screw corroded in and cannot remove. I've tried PB Blaster to see if it would penetrate and loosen but after 5 sprayings over last hour I don't think so. I used some VERY LIGHT heat with micro-torch but don't want to damage the plastic & rubber valve parts or the finish on faucets.
What can I do to loosed the set screw?
Here is a link to a photo of faucet if that helps... you can see where set screw is located below where the faucet handle screws in...
