Recently I saw this glue called Plumbing GOO and its claims that it is safe for PVC joining.I also noticed it was somewhat cheaper than standard PVC cement.Should I use it?

By the way, is primer nesacary?

Primer IS necessary. without it your pvc does not get soft. then the joint becomes weaker.

so the PVC expands some what when under pressure. If it was rigged it would just blow up!

50 bucks? :lol: here its only SGD 8 for a 500ml tube. Ok, understood.So the primer sofetns the surface of the pipe so it can better fit together. Wouldn't a layer of cement cover up any other leaks if the pipes and joints didn't fit properly?

Couldn't you just chop off the unused parts?You would save on making a new one...

Mate get your self a rubber mallet so you can tap everything together and you should have i tite seal as most PVC parts adapt to each other so its a sealed join. just make sure your tapping things together befor the glue drys!! other wise it aint going to happen any time soon!
