Tips & Warnings. 1  If you have problems attaching the fitting and you need to unscrew it and try again, don't use the same teflon tape that's already on the pipe, as it will be torn and balling up. 2  Run your thumb and forefinger around the thread counter-clockwise to pull off the tape, then re-apply a new piece.
Pipe dope has been around for a very long time and tends to be the favorite product for professional plumbers. Teflon tape is also used to seal pipes threads and tends to be the favorite with homeowners because it is less messy than pipe dope. The two products can be used interchangeably, with a couple of exceptions.o apply pipe dope, simply swab a coat onto the threads of a male fitting using the brush applicator supplied with the container. Make sure all the threads are covered and avoid applying dope over the end or inside the fitting.
