Instructions:
1. Store and apply between 40 degree F and 120 degree F. Use below 40 degree F only with proper solvent cement and with extreme care.
2. Cut pipe end square and remove ragged edges and burrs. Clean fitting socket and pipe of dirt, grease, and moisture, and check for proper fit. Apply PRIMER as noted below. While still wet, quickly begin solvent cement application.
3. Wear non-permeable gloves during application to avoid skin contact.
4. Apply PRIMER evenly and freely to socket and then to pipe end for length of socket depth using supplied dauber applicator. Then apply again to socket. For pipe greater than 2″ diameter, use natural-bristle brush sized to 1/2 pipe diameter. During each application step, keep dauber or brush wet and moving about 10 seconds.
5. Temperature and humidity conditions may require repeated applications to one or both surfaces to avoid drying. While still wet, quickly apply proper solvent cement and make up pipe joint in accordance with cement’s instructions.
