How to stop heater hoses from leaking coolant?

I just did the heater core flush, and put on the new clamps that you screw down(not the crappy stock ones)...well its leaking, and i think ive tightened the clamps down as much as I can...is there something that you put on the hoses that seals it to stop it from leaking?
Thanks guys

If the hose is the stock one, it jsut should not leak if you have ends all way on and the clamps tightened in the correct spot on the pipe (if the pipe has expanded ends). If that doesn't work try using double clamps. Good luck.
