Default compression fittings..... pah!

My tip for these PITA inventions is compress them up then undo them and
coat the olive in a healthy dose of Fernox-LSX silicone or similar.

Spent many hours Saturday faffing around behind the newly fixed basin &
pedestal with a tissue trying to find several weepers.

Silicone (as above) and a cup of tea while it cured did the job a treat.


Use the best quality fitting like Conex, and a very slight smear of jointing
compound and no probs. Don't buy cheap crap.
