Glue advice

[Headhunter]

I've just about completed my SW Mixing Station build and having a small issue. I don't like the way the python tube is connected to my quick connects (which are awesome btw)...while it is water tight, it just not giving me that permanent no leak feeling...concerned about a potential leak. What type of adhesive or glue would you recommend?

Thank you in advance

Regular ovc glue should work fine. It creates a "weld" at the joint for leak free solutions

I would use hose clamps personally.

You never know when you will have to take apart a coupling. The force of the clamp will close any holes water could permeate through.

either. or both if you’re really paranoid.

Belt and suspenders... Definitely effective

Thank you...I'm going to try the hose clamps and see how well I sleep at night...may end up with glue too.

happy holidays!
