Rear derailleur into new frame

Another blooming problem.... Getting a bit sick of things not just working now!
Trying to screw the rear derailleur into my new frame (it doesn't have a replaceable hanger.) It threads in a bit, but stiffens up as I screw it in, eventually stopping maybe half way in. I doubt I can screw it all the way and I don't want to put loads of pressure on and knacker the threads. What do I do!?

Try and thread it into the back of the hanger - might clean the threads up a bit. But be careful! If in doubt, have the threads chased.0

Paint in the threads, if it's new?I don't do smileys.

I'll try it t'other way tomorrow. Is having the thread chased something the lbs will do?0
