Default PVC Primer/Cement

All Lowes, Home depot, and Rona have are the purple primer and or grey cement for the Oatey brand.

Where do you get the clear primer/cement? I'm also looking for IPEX 95 cement for the flexible PVC.

Try a pool or hot tub supply store, Andrew Sheret has never heard of clear or flex glue any time I have asked them.

If you move over to the electrical section, you'll find clear primer and glue for PVC conduit.

Corix has the same purple/grey.

I saw the clear solvent at HD in the electrical section, but wasn't sure if it was safe for potable water.

Weld on 795 for flex and 705 for rigid are what you want. If it's not the right stuff pool/spa suppliers will have it, I use it all the time.
If you were closer I'd give you some lol. I should say that if anyone in the gvrd needs some send me a pm.
