You didn't ruin the hose.
Clem, I use Indian Head Shellac available at NAPA, etc. That stiff has been around for quite literally decades. It was quite common many years ago for repair shops to slather on a bit of this stuff at radiator hose connections. It works my friend - it works. And, at about $2 a bottle, how can ya go wrong?
