I shot in some PB blaster, but am unsure how that might work with Loc Tite. The real rub is the narrow flats on the cup can't stand more than a couple wrench slips before they become unusable. I ordered the proper tool, but I want to stack the deck before I go at it again. Any tips?
Gonna be that guy..Italian threading? So, lefty loosey?

Yup, proper tool, like this one..or a 'Stein tool', to hold a wrench 'on there'.
