how much pipe dope do you need to use to make your water lines secure? * 1
    #725172 -

Hi, and a question of all of the in house plumbers?

I'm doing some diy plumbing and I need to know how much pipe dope I need to buy?  How far can the pros stretch a whole can of pipe dope?

I don't want to spend too much money on pipe dope, and have excess laying around the house, but I don't want to undershoot it, having not enough dope on your pipes is just as bad, if not worse.  I want to be able to run clean water all throughout my house.

It's safe to say you don't need any more dope

I actually laughed out loud...

Learning to love life by living through loss and mistakes
Lessons learned then gradually surfacing, Letting go, stripping naked to scream
I am not perfect nor do I strive to be, I am alive in this world of face first falls and public breakdowns
I'm a retarded, disfigured clown
Dying to be heard through the simple art of letting this heavy wall finally fall
I'm an equal being of no race, or color, a hallucination if you will
Sneaking into the lives of strangers, and letting them fall apart to a new rhythm just to feel better

You use way too many commas.

If you guys don't know what pipe dope is, or have anything constructive to say in a legitimate thread, then stay out of it.

You basically just want to use enough to make sure the threads are sealed (if it's a non-threaded joint/coupler then you should be using a bonding cement). Usually just a thin layer like 1/8" thick all the way around is sufficient, because as you turn the coupler the dope gets pushed into the gaps and should seal it up nice.

Honestly though, I certainly don't want my pipes trying to do their job all doped up. :shrug:
