We had to replace a radiator today and I used some PTFE tape.
As I like the apprentices to learn and just generally gain knowledge I told him that the PTFE tape was the same thing used to make non stick pans.
And then he asked "Are you sure? My Mum's non stick pans are black not white"
Well he has a point. Wikipedia says PTFE is white at room temperature. Either that of he has burn his Mums pans:-)
