Helping a Tractor Channel Bring a Shower Head Back To Life!
What happens here
After the soaking period (approximately 5 hours), the user mentions having also used a 'torch file' (likely a small, thin file or pick) to physically clear out any remaining stubborn clogs from the individual nozzles of the shower head. He then applies fresh Teflon tape to the clean threads of the shower arm. The cleaned shower head is screwed back onto the arm, tightened by hand, and then given a final snug tightening with pliers for a secure, leak-free connection.
Goal: Securely reattach the shower head and ensure a watertight seal.
