Any such thing as in-place pipe dope?
I am surprised that we got this far into this thread and nobody has
pointed out pipe dope and teflon tape is there as a lubricant, not a
sealant. It allows you to get the pipe tight enough for a good metal
to metal seal.
That's not quite true.
The pipe dope permits elbows to be positioned at any position in that "last
turn" without leakage.
