I'VE NEVER SEEN THIS HAPPEN BEFORE!...Braided Flex Supply Line Leak!

What happens here

Reach underneath the sink to locate the angle stop valve (also known as a shut-off valve) for the specific faucet being worked on. Using an adjustable wrench, carefully turn the handle or knob counter-clockwise ('lefty loosey') to completely shut off the water flow. Ensure the water is fully off before attempting to disconnect the supply line to prevent flooding.

Goal: Locate and turn the angle stop valve (shut-off valve) counter-clockwise to completely shut off the water supply to the faucet before proceeding with any disconnections.
