You may have to use a significant amount of downward force as you twist the cap counter-clockwise, but the cap should "break" free from the threads of the bottle. If it is still giving trouble, you may want to wrap something like an old Edgeless Utility Towel around the cap and then use pliers - do not use a lot of force here, as the cap or bottle could break, which could be a real mess and potential injury with broken glass. Another option would be to see if you could carefully squeeze a bent paperclip into the underside of the cap to try to break loose the hardened coating, which may then allow the cap to spin freely and remove as you normally would.

Once the cap is free, use an old towel, paper towel, etc to carefully wipe off the top of the bottle and inside of the cap as much as possible. You want to remove as much of the hardened white coating dust off of the cap as possible. Wear gloves when doing this - some of the crystallized coating shards could be sharp, so please exercise caution!

If the cap still won't come loose, please let me know and I'll see what we can do to get a replacement out to you.

Thanks for the reply, currently im out of town but once I return I will give this a try. I will let you know if it works out! Thanks have a good day.

Alright I will start off with I’m a idiot. So I bought some ceramic coating and used it over the summer but I forgot to clean the top off before placing the cap on. I recently needed it again and I can’t get the thing open. I’m sure as you know it’s the press down and twist cap but the inner cap won’t twist as I think it sealed itself. Anyone got any tips on a fix?
