ABSTRACT:
A plumber's tool for the removal of snap-mount faucet-type handles without damaging the finish of the faucet handle. The tool includes a support member, a lever handle and a wire that can be secured to both the support member and the lever arm such that the wire can be looped around a snap-mount faucet handle and positioned in the gap between the faucet handle and faucet body. When the lever handle is pivoted and tension is increased, the loop in the pop-off wire is positioned in a gap between the faucet body and the faucet handle, causing the faucet handle to separate from the faucet body without scratching or damaging the finish of the faucet.
