I replaced one of those crappy plastic pop-up assemblies with a nice, brass one. Taped the threads, puttied the flange, etc.. The threads are still wet just under the brass nut that tightens down the rubber gasket and brass washer. I've already tightened the hell out of this nut. The original pop-up was installed by a "licensed plumber" and was also leaking in the same spot. It had leaked so much, the wet putty was oozing out.
This sink looks like a normal porcelain lav sink on top, but it has an unusual underside--it looks like stone or clay. I'm wondering if there's a defect or imperfection that is causing this. Will a bead of silicone help here?
