![]() Regular here as well. I've deliberately tried bending and pulling flex hose out of PVC fittings before so that I could re-use one or the other. Its extremely difficult to impossible without breaking something.

![]() Thanks for the replies.
From what I have read the special flexible PVC cement is for high pressure applications. Seems that a lot of people have done fine with the regular PVC cement. However I will try the store in North Van as I have had it with plumbing leak nightmares and I don't want to take any chances.
