Quoted from "GatorGuy" I think I'd go with bubble gum first. I thought about that

Leak at heads for valve inlet

Thanks for the prompt responses everyone. I was hoping for a quick fix, but did as yall suggested and cut out the pipe, unscrewed the valve and started over. The nice thing about doing that is I was able to add some Teflon to the backside, and get a few more turns out of the valve to prevent any future leakage there as well. Dope is drying on the other fittings, and we should be good to go. Thanks again

Leak at heads for valve inlet

I just finished my first solo system installation, and went to charge the lines today and check for leaks. Eveything looks good except the male inlet threads leading into the valves. Both of them have a tiny drip. Of course eveything leading to those male couplers is glued. Can I apply any sort of sealant to the threads and not have to cut out/replace the inlets? Thanks
