Cheap cheap cheap! I had to believe the negative reviews. Yes, the paint couldn't be worse. Like some of the other negative reviews I found it difficult to deal with. There was dye on the inside of the threads. Threads are also cheap metal. I turned three or four turns and then reversed. My themes are no longer repairable. Must reload! I ordered the right size. The union nuts are the same size. God forbid they went further and I got a flat tire. Maybe I had to call a tow truck. spend more money You get what you pay for!
