Recently changed valve on radiator. Where the valve enters the bottom of the radiator its wrapped with ptfe but still has a small leak does this need time to set ? Is it normal for it to leak a little for a dsy or 2 afterwards the leak is slowing and is minor . Thanks in advance
 
20 wraps of ptfe required
