Wd40, lighter fluid or PlusGas , warm the lens with a hair dryer put it onto some kitchen towel on a hot radiator and drip a a little solvent around the threads and leave it to soak . It may take several doses to soak the dry grease. Gripping the lens with a piece of sheet rubber or a rubber cup used for opening jam jars works for me, gland pliers are a last resort.
