Oh it's coming undone just very slowly as it strips the waxoyl off. I'm using a 17mm socket on the nut and an adjustable spanner on the nut (as it's all I have in that size) and it's slipping off and rounding down the nut.
If all else fails I'll be grinding it off to get my jate rings on there, but not quite yet.

why don't ye just wire brush them first tae clean them and give them a scoosh of gt85 or wd40? It'd make life a whole lot easier
Ended up doing a combination of everything. Brushed as much of the layers of waxoyl and grim off as I could, then used a newly bought 17mm spanner and some WD40, and my foot to assist my wrench. Got them off in the end - the nuts aren't much use for anything any more but that'll not be a problem for long.
