Leaking pipework

[steq184]

Have plumbed in the 1.5" abs pipework using wet r dry glue. have noticed that a few joints are seeping or dripping slightly, rather than re-do the pipework is there a product I can use, i.e putty etc???
I WILL GET THIS DAMN POOL WORKING!!!

A really big problem this..

Did you use MEK cleaning solution first? (Methyl ethyl key t***)
This solution removes the silic***s from the pipe and bites the abs ready to accept the glue part of the bonding process.

You can get around the problem by using a sealant called rotobond but only as a temporary I advise you remake it all sorry :mad:


The UKPOOLSTORE has rotobond in stock available from our online store ....

Yep re making is the best way to solve the challenges, clean clean clean and then glue. If neccesary use an abrasive cloth, then cleaner then glue.:p
The :p how you look after smelling pipe glue!
