On VW AC engines I've done dry with hit or miss results, same for oil.
Then switched to teflon pipe compound, worked, but I never liked it.
Once I switched to the Dow product I never looked back on both Porsche and VW.
Sealant on an O-ring is a big no-no, don't get me started on RTV....
The one big trick is to deburr all holes and surfaces, one nick and you will have a leaky O-ring.

Not putting miles on your car is like not having sex with your girlfriend, so she'll be more desirable to her next boyfriend.
