I'm replacing a moen tub spout/diverter since the diverter works so poorly. More hot water down the drin than up to the shower! I've tried to locate a similar filler spout with limited success. The old spout is brass with a polished gold finish. Most supply houses wanted to sell me the entire shower set (Valve, escutions, drain strainer, spout/diverter, etc) One location DID have just the spout/diverter however its a plastic unit that has a polished gold finish. I'm a little concerned as to what to use threads for installation ... I usually use a small amount of rectorseal on the brass to brass NPT fittings, my question is what, if anything, should I use on the brass nipple to the plastic pipe threads of the new spout/diverter?
Thanks,
Bob
