Has anyone had success using standard PVC only cement when combining those typical black plastic (ABS? PVC?) bulkheads with sch40 pvc pipe?
I just glued some up and I'm not crazy about the way they went together. I know they make a more general purpose solvent for PVC, CPVC, and ABS... I probably should have used that.

The primer and the solvent both softened the bulkhead up pretty well, but I'm not sure if they'll combine.

Guess I'll just wait and try pulling them apart. NDT is for wusses.

I used the regular cement and have always been fine.
