How can we remove the Moen Eva towel bars from the wall bracket so we can paint the wall?

There are larger screw-type anchors available at a hardware store. If the hole is a half inch, you can possibly use an expanding wing type "molly" anchor. it's hard to assemble the screws through the bracket, then put on the butterfly, and shove the folded butterfly into the hole, but it's doable.

go to the home depot and they may be able to suggest a fix for this. or another hardware store. good-day !

There should be a tiny set screw holdng each bracket on the wall.

There should be a small screw in each of the arms that secure the towel bar to the wall mounts. You will need to loosen each of these to remove the towel bar from the wall and to release the mounting bracket which has pulled free. To repair you need to puchase a larger size moly plug, toggle mount or other suitable hardware to secure the mounting bracket to the sheetrock wall (should not have pulled free is screwed in to the stud). Once you secure the mounting bracket then you are able to re-install the towel bar by placing the arms over the mounting brackets and tightening the small screws on each arm of the towel bar.

First off you need to pry off the cap thats facing you (most models). Then there should be a little hole on the side for each one that needs an allen wrench to unscrew off the wall.

on both ends look underneath and there is a tiny hole with an Allen/hex head insert u turn counterclockwise wise and loosen srew until you can tilt end upwards towards the wall, reverse to install
