fuel fitting sealant

Guys:

Should I be using some sort of sealant on my fuel fittings -- like a fuel proof version of Loctite or something?

For flared fittings, no sealant is needed. In fact, you want the flare to be as clean as possible. For threaded fittings, Fuel Lube or EZ Turn (http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/c ... rnlube.php) is supposed to be used.
