I was recently told that you need to be wrapping 20 turns for rad valves.
Manufacturing tolerances must be pretty bollocks, I guess.

Ha, I went with 10 plus compound. Put a bit of water in but not under pressure yet. No drips. Will fill properly tomorrow when I'm less tired and annoyed.

No drips/leaks overnight so have filled to pressure.

I’ve never done that much ever, 20 is ridiculous, if your putting that much on you may aswell use gas tape 😂

I have some jointing compound too. Is the answer about 7 wraps and some compound?
