I grew up believing in pipe dope for all kinds of plumbing
connections - gas , liquid , etc . WHY IS IT then that when I use it to
mount a cutoff valve on a PVC fitting it leaks virtually every time ?
Just plumbed the claw foot tub and the cold has a seep on that fitting .
And I'm out of teflon tape .
