I don't like using any sealer or silicone because if you happen to rotate one of your fittings after that stuff dries, it will break up and cause gaps that will leak. If you plan on using it, then my advice is to be real careful when using your valves, not to rotate the fitting at all. Remeber, the plastic pail is real flexible. Your fitting has to adjust to the bucket flex when applying torque to your valves.

The cool thing about an O-ring fitting, is you can spin it around and it will still stay water tight.
