weird, never heard of a tape based thread lube. Either way, lubricating the threads on a flare nut isnt going to help the flare seal any.

Teflon tape is strictly a lubricant that helps make in the threads better. As for the flare? yes if its the flare, nothing will help it. The stainless steel t-tape would fill any imperfections in the threads. So long as u put a small amount, not interfering with the swivel.
