Pedal Problem

[Will04]

I am doing up and old bike for my brother for christmas and i am trying to replace the existing pedals with DMR V12s. I have got one of the old pedals off, however, the other one seems to be stuck. I have used lots of bike lubricant and tried hammering it and have even stood on the spanner. The thing won't budge. Any ideas on how to get it off?

Please reply, bike needs to be finished!

Spray wd40 on the nuts and leave it for a few minutes and try again.

The pedal on the non-drive side is reversed threaded. That might be the problem.
