I have an old steel water supply pipe and would like to convert to PVC
(and then to CPVC). I had cut the steel line and used a PVC pipe
"repair" (I don't remember the proper name for that).



Mission Coupling.

That sprung a leak
on the steel side so I've replaced it with one for steel pipe, this
leaks on the PVC side.

What is the solution here?


I've used no "dope" of any kind. I would think it wouldn't need it.
This is 3/4" steel line.
