Its a thread sealent called loc-tite. Ususally not used on bottomlines because you get the same effect with teflon tape. There are many strengths of loc-tite. Sounds like there was red (many strengths of reds also, but whatever is most common form of red loc-tite) loc-tite on your threads. Glad to hear it came off. If you need help with anything... you know where to reach me.
