A kitchen faucet is almost completely plugged with debris(solder) in the supply lines and causing low water pressure and flow issues. The supply shutoff valves are plugged with debris to the point where they cannot be closed. This video covers the valve replacement, soldier removal, and cleaning all faucet parts(supply lines, shutoff valves, cartridge, nozzle parts, etc.) to establish good flow again.

The repair was performed while the wife was out of town, and seeing her surprise and shock when realizing the repair was completed is priceless!

This is not a simple plugged aerator video and the things learned here could be reapplied to any faucet. You will be able to change supply valves, cleanout any part of the faucet, and also repair a leaking faucet.The video has been edited and streamlined to less than seven minutes.
