Just done that. Buy the right box spanner, there are many and varied items. Buy a quality item. All of mine are Cattle Trucked and I too used the Molegrip method.

There is a problem with some modern (swivel) taps in that the tightening point, where it keeps the tap secure AND allows it to swivel is so fine that over tightening results in no swivel and not quite tight enough results in every ruddy thing moving.

I hate Plumbing, but love drainage. Each to their own......
