Solvent cement is a type of adhesive used in plumbing to join two pieces of plastic or other non-porous material together. To make solvent cement, you will need:
• PVC Cleaner/Primer – This helps to soften the plastic and prepare the surfaces for bonding.
• Solvent Cement – This is the adhesive that will bond the two pieces of plastic together.
• Protective Gloves – Always wear protective gloves when handling the solvent cement.
1. Clean the surfaces of both pieces of plastic using the PVC cleaner/primer. Make sure the surfaces are completely clean and free from any dirt or debris.
2. Apply the solvent cement evenly to both surfaces. Make sure there is an even and generous coating of the adhesive.
3. Quickly join the two pieces of plastic together and hold firmly in place until the solvent cement sets.
