Hi Dave, i'm a dealer for a UK brake expert and they told me that brake fluid can eat the tape and its better to use the liquid stuff, Next time i'm in there i will ask further questions.
To be honest an NPT thread shouldn't need any additions at all and should seal against itself but i have had the occassional problem thread myself.

It doesn't look like the sell them by color any longer, but mine are not the same which leads me to believe that they are different compounds - guessing street in the front and race in the rear. Neither set of instructions, front or rear which were purchased separately and from different sources(front, came with the TCI chassis and rears, Speedway) gave me what pad was supplied.

And as far as Teflon tape - I do like the stuff in a tube better. Both that and the tape are a PITA to clean off, but probably the tape is worse. Steve - I had forgotten when I posted, but used tape on a T-bucket years ago, but don't recall deterioration.
