Used the gelled pipe compound on fleet air-brake systems all the time. Hydraulic is probably different though.

Leave it 1/4in away from the thread ends and it'll be fine, the internal pressure at rest wants to push the compound out of the system.
Also, regularly drain the water out of the tank and oil your tools.
