I've been trying to install my own sink in the upstairs bathroom and I'm having a problem with the compact trap I'm using..... It leaks both from where it attaches to the sink and the waste pipe. I've tried putting about 15 turns of ptfe on each join but while that's helped it doesn't seem to have solved the problem.... I've read not to overtighten the nuts but am not sure how tight too tight is. I've tightened them as much as I can with my hand but not used a spanner. The rubber o-rings look okay and not damaged in any way. Can anyone shed any light on the problem please?
