Yep. My case wasn't going to separate with years of "tapping." I even hit the thing pretty hard with a hammer and metal socket extension directly on the "4 corners" hoping that the high frequency vibrations transferred to the case would help break the bond, but no luck.
I had already tried my spreader between the fan housing mounts before coming across your thread. Your comments encouraged me to keep working with the "spreading tool" approach.
And, yes, I'm not looking forward to the cleaning part.
