Sink Removal '02MB
Yahoo Message Number: 143606
Bought a new sink from MS.  Should be just a drop in deal.  Trouble is before I drop in, I need to take out.  I disconnected drains and hold down clamps but it won't budge.  I know it is sealed in place with caulk but I even tried to slip a chisel under the lip but so far no success.  Anyone done this?  Should I try heat? Advice appreciated.

Rog, if you are certain the only thing holding it in place is the caulking I would use heat. Then put a putty knife into the gap to free it. When I took my old faucet off I had a similar problem. They use an incredibly strong caulking. May need to do the heat underneath in one place towards the back and see how it works. Good luck, john
