Jointing compound

[Gas74]

What's everyone's thought on what is the best water/gas jointing compound. Jet blue has been recommended to me after being forced to use fernox for years at old work, which I thought was rubbish.

LSX for central heating and water
And laco for gas

I got on to Jet Lube v2, I think it is called. Expensive but never hardens - so no waste & it does gas, potable water etc.
Boss White is actually a brilliant sealant paste & nothing works better I reckon that it for any hot joints in a heating system as it will ooze into the joint & harden. I actually have sealed joints like on a coil connection at a cylinder by insulating tape stretched over boss white. Not for potable sadly & hardens in the tub unfortunately, but very cheap.

Jet lube v2 for me also.

Jet blue for water, never lets me down. Stag for oil.

My old company used ptfe seal made by facto, brilliant stuff for water and gas, but i cant find anywhere that sells it. In the bag at the moment is Tplus2 and Loctite 557

Same stuff.

Plumbcenter do a version of it. Bigger tub.
