We have a campingaz portable toilet and really struggle to empty the cassette as it is very difficult to unscrew. If it isn't on tightly it leaks, have tried greasing the rubber valve but it still is jammed on tight. Have used a jubilee clip once and a screwdriver another time! Any advice gratefully received!

We have a Fiamma BiPot and I do occasionally find it a struggle to undo. Best thing I find is to use my legs to support the unit and that then frees both hands up to turn the cap.
yep, rubber gloves are the thing! I also use them to undo glass jar lids, and to switch on the propane to the caravan, there's one in with the gas bottle especially for the purpose!
Thanks for the tips, we did manage to get the lid off by wearing rubber gloves but I think the jubilee clip and screwdriver may have loosened it a bit. My husband has deceided to use an old leather belt next time, we'll see how that goes!
A strap wrench similar to this one would do the trick. I picked one up from one of the local £1 shops some time ago for oil filter removal, but will work on all sorts of screw tops - useful for getting the screw top off my fermenting barrels also.
