I've got an old sink here, need to get the hot water handle off to see why it's not turning off completely.

Took out the screw on top of the handle, the thing is not budging, more prying only dents the rest of the faucet....anybody recommend any solvent....WD40?

help me out

There is a specific tool for the purpose called a "faucet handle puller" runs around 10 bucks available at most hardware stores.
