I don't love them, but they are far better than that shit they released like 2 years ago. At least now they are more distinguishable from one another.

So, I just replaced this and its still leaking. I properly lubricated the ring on both sides before install, and hand tightened only. Oddly enough, it's also leaking in the same places where the original one was leaking.

Nothing looks off or wrong with the threads on the female side of this, nor can I feel an abrasions as I run my fingers along the edges... Are there any tips to get this thing to completely seal?
