- Reviewed in the United States on March 24, 2025This is what was recommended to me ... better than Teflon tape, I suppose.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 24, 2024No cracking or drying awesome hold
- Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2024its kinda messy when i use it. like roofing tar, or painting, i manage to get it all over me. thats just me though. it cleans off easy enough, just rub it off. i cant tell you about washing a few clothes yet, but suspect, that will be easy as well.. i will see if it comes, with a smaller brush..
- Reviewed in the United States on May 15, 2024Product has been around for decades, works great.
You can't go wrong with a truly tested product
- Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2024This sealed the threads on the PVC to Bass hose bib very well
- Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2024Works great to seal threaded joints
- Reviewed in the United States on August 29, 2023During my time overseas it’s difficult to match Euro vs. U.S. thread sizes…..had a go with Teflon tape, which normally prevents leaks….not this time. This pipe joining compound did the trick and put a smile on my face.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 29, 2024Works as expected

2.0 out of 5 stars Messy product
This product is messy. It did not work for me on water pipe threads. I applied it twice and it leaked. One valve held for some time and after a while started to leak as well.
