Ok, I know that this is a stupid question, but I just want to be safe. So go easy on the newbie flaming. :(

I have a sch 40 pvc part, and a sch 40 UV-PVC part. If I use regular pvc primer and glue, will they bond correctly?

Can UV-PVC be safely bonded with regular PVC?

Whoah there's UV-PVC? It should be fine, but you might want to call a professional. (aka not your local home depot, they didn't know what schedule 40 was...) Since the primer is a solvent, it should dissolve them the same. I don't see why it shouldn't work.
