on second thought never mind..lol its a lubricant not a sealer...

oh yeah all my fittings are steel not brass... :roflmao: :roflmao:
:uh: if said installer is smart enough to know when to stop with the tape..... other wise youll be using a dental pick and air to remove the teflon from the block

What? brass fittings? thats for coolant systems. Pipe threads seal themselves . If your using brass for fittings use liquid teflon on the threads. Why are you using brass fittings on a hydro ride? just curious

:thumbsup: i use duct tape

luckily, todays technology give us a multitude of colors in duct and electrical tapes.
