Going from Brass to PVC

nancyk

I am going from a Brass ball valve to a threaded pvc connection. In the past I do not always get a good seal, some places get slight slow drips. I always use teflon tape. I was thinking of going to a pvc ball valve but question the quality as compared to brass(or stainless). I have not used compound on these joints in case I wanted to modify anything(which I am doing now).

I just read the long tutorial on the differences in Teflon tape and the use of RectorSeal and was wondering if using RectorSeal(or LocTite) is the answer.
