Default 95 accord press on rotor

long story short, tried changing the front rotors on my accord with original pads and rotors. on the driver side, with a hub puller and 15 pound slide, it came out in 2 knocks. the pasenger side, used 20pound and it didnt even budge. used my hub remover (connects to lugs and center piece turns to pop out hub) it moved the hub alot, but still it didnt come out. Used a hammer and hit the hub from the back to tap it out and nothing. for some reason it doesnt want to pop out. any suggestions? this rotor is stubborn as hell.

Deep Creep might also be worth a try.

sounds like it's either rusted on or seized on you might be better off replacing the whole knuckle from a junk yard.
