Default brake line leak

Just ran 2 new hardlines on my civic but I have a little seapage coming around the threads. It is as tight as it can get and I just reused the fitting. Is there anything I can put on the threads or do I need a new Prop valve?
Thanks Jason

Default Re: brake line leak

i had the same issue a few months ago, i found in my personal experience that the fittings CANNOT be reused without leaking. cut the new line add a new fitting and flare the line correctly.
