Confession:

I have used red Boss white on the taps for the Kitchen (not connected
yet)

I then noticed that it states for potable duties use Boss Supergreen
but it also says non-toxic

Any advice

TIA David

It may not be toxic but it's still not approved for potable services.

How do you use it on taps anyway? You make the connection with a
tap connector with either a traditional fibre owasher or a rubber
one if it's a pushfit fitting: in either case no jointing compound
is required.

I don't know what this 'potable' business is all about! When Adam was a lad
there was only one sort of Boss White, which you used on everything - and
no-one died as a result, as far as I know!

Where exactly did you use it?

..and it was white, well, it wasn't red or green.

Well, a sort of beige colour - as Hawk White, which I'm currently using,
still is.

I used it on the threads for the compression male tap connectors

When I say red that's the lid colour that was to distinguish the type
(it's beige inside)

Thanks for the replies

Not really necessary - but it's unlikely to come in contact with the water
anyway - don't worry about it!
