What did you use to glue spaflex to PVC fittings. I got some PVC glue for CPVC, PVC, and ABS so that I could use that for gluing to the bulkhead but will this also work for the spaflex or should I get the spaflex glue to be on the safe side?

I have just used regular PVC primer and glue. No problems at all. I even pulled on the joints really hard and they did not budge.

That is good. I am sure the companies say that you have to use the special kind because of potential preasures that are put on the spaflex under different applications. But for this there shouldn't be to much preasure. At least it doesn't look like I have to go out and buy a special cement. Thanks for the input I was just making sure.
