Works
This did the job on my garden pvc sprinkler repair. Parts must be dry or use the rain solvent one. This was a nice pair combination for my needs. Did the repairs nicely but wish they offered a smaller amount for homeowners that need half that amount or offer the cleaner and rain application as well as a set.

Great kit. Extremely easy to use. The purple dye in the primer was especilly valuable in identifying where the materials had been applied, and spots that had been missed. The PVC cement quickly set and created absolutely waterproof connections between the materials being joined.

The clear cement had to be redone after being allowed to set for the 24 hours. I have re done it again and it still holding except that one of the joints is bubbling and small amount of water is seeping out of it.

My daughter loves tennis but because of covid-19 all the tennis courts were closed in our State. I built this tennis training/practice apparatus so she could play in our yard and keep practicing. I purchased the Oatey 8 oz. PVC Handy Pack Purple Primer and Solvent Cement on 5/18/20 from the Home Depot. It is made to work specifically with PVC pipe. I also purchased Charlotte Pipe 1 1/2 inch PVC from Home Depot and added a 10' x 10' net and some bungee cords and built the tennis training/practice apparatus on 5/19/20. My daughter loves it and it works awesome! She has a powerful serve and ground stroke and has been outside most mornings getting exercise and practicing. What I really like about the Oatey purple primer and solvent cement is that it creates a super strong bond instantly within seconds between the PVC pipes. I was able to do my whole project and only used about 20% of the glue.The Oatey 8 oz handy pack definitely exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend it because it is easy to use, creates a strong bond, and it is very affordable.
