Advice please. I'm replacing a radiator in the bathroom. The trv is a 15mm compression fitting to the radiator tail whereas the lockshield side is a 3/4 bsp union fitting joint. Would a smear of plumbers gold on the faces of the connection create a decent seal. Thanks in anticipation.
3/4 bsp lockshield valve.

If it’s how I’m thinking, you don’t need it. Ptfe tape or similar, eg loctite stuff for the threads, mating faces not required
