anti seize
I installed aluminum valve caps at the start of winter and when checkiing the tire pressure discovered with the salt used on our roads I created the perfect envirnoment with oxidation to "weld" the valve caps to the brass stems. Took 13mm box wrench and vice grips to get them off.Just a reminder to use anti seize compound whem two different metals meet
