Is there a way to detach more than two nodes at a time?

I'm making a mesh where there's two surfaces sharing an edge, so I want the two meshes to have their nodes aligned. To do that, I equivalenced the nodes at the contact point between the surfaces and am now detaching the nodes so the two meshes aren't bound together. 

However, I'm only able to detach two nodes at a time, which is proving very tedious. Is there a faster way to do this?

    you should use the 'detach from'

    select 2 groups of elements, the ones to be detached and the other group for the reference elements, from which they will be detached.
