I use Loctight on all of my fittings, the blue stuff. It seals immediately and works wonders. Teflon paste is great for perfect threads as it's more designed towards non galling then an absolute sealer when you have a nic in the threads. the loctight will fill the nic right up and instantly seal and won't blow out like the paste will and does.
