A while back, I did some experimenting with the LFNC into PVC M/A thing.

After some failures I ended up sanding both the flex and the M/A with 220 grit sandpaper, priming each with PVC primer, applying Light Bodied PVC Cement to both, and assembling it.

I left it overnight to cure. When I came back to test it, the flex pulled right out of the PVC fitting.

The glue hadn't bonded to the flex.
I gave up at that point.

I use Otey all purpose with primer and you can't pull one out, at least with the force it takes to pull out a regular LNFC fitting.

If this stuff was white it would be Spa Flex and they put pools together with it.
