DESCRIPTION

Black Swan All Purpose Primer/Cleaner (Clear) is a clear, non-bodied, fast acting solvent used to soften, clean and prepare plastic pipe and fittings prior to assembly.  All Purpose Primer/Cleaner can be used with all type, schedules and classes of PVC and CPVC pipe and fittings.

Why Primer is Used

In most cases a successful solvent cement joint can be made without using a primer/cleaner.  But, if you want to increase probability of making a successful joint, using a primer/cleaner is the thing to do. 

All Purpose Primer/Cleaner (Clear) accomplishes two things.  First, it will clean the pipe and fittings of any dirt, oil, grease and other foreign matter.  If the plastic is dirty before making a connection it will be more difficult for the cement to bond the pipe and fitting together.  Second, All Purpose Primer/Cleaner (Clear) will soften the plastic.  This allows the cement the opportunity of skipping a step (softening the plastic) and to go immediately to the process of fusing the pipe and fitting together.  Note – softening the plastic in cold weather is especially important because it will noticeably speed up the process of making a solvent cement joint.

Using All Purpose Primer/Cleaner (Clear) is always recommended to make a good connection.  And remember, in most locations using a primer/cleaner is mandatory according to local codes.


DIRECTIONS

  1. All Purpose Primer/Cleaner (Clear) is recommended for PVC and CPVC pipe and fittings.
  2. Square cut pipe and remove all dirt and burrs.
  3. Check dry fit of pipe and fitting.  Pipe should easily go into fitting 1/4″ to 3/4″ of the way.
  4. Apply liberal amount of All Purpose Primer/Cleaner (Clear) to all surfaces which will be cemented.
  5. After cleaning and priming wait 15 seconds to allow surfaces to soften.  While surface is still wet apply the cement.
  6. Follow the directions provided with the solvent cement to make proper joints.

WARNING

Avoid contact with eyes, mucous membranes, and prolonged skin contact.  Use only in a well ventilated area.  Avoid prolonged breathing of vapor.  Do not use near heat, sparks or flame.


FIRST AID

Eyes – flush with plenty of water for 15 minutes.  Get medical attention.  Skin- flush thoroughly with water. If irritation persists, get medical attention.  Internal – if swallowed, give 1 or 2 glasses of water. Do not induce vomiting and call physician immediately.
