Try some WD-40 if that doesn't work then get a bigger "spanner"!

then he still wont have it unscrewed...he probably needs the threads to be unscrewed so he can screw it in somewhere else.

I really have no idea what CRC is, WD-40 is just a type of spray lubricant. Also try a box end wrench, if that fails just buy a new fitting.
