I am currently waiting 15-20 minutes between gluing and applying the pressure necessary to make the next glue.. When I tried to glue 2 joints quickly, I was surprised to see the first joint twist when I tried to twist in the second joint.. This was back to back gluing as fast as I could..
So I am tossing that joint and going back to the old method.. and waiting between successive joints.
I also knocked a glued section hard against a joist.. It had set for 20 minutes or so but appeared to show separation between the glue and the pipe where the glue pushes out of the socket.. I will probably redo this one as well..
I need to pass a leak test so am not sure about the cure time and how sturdy those joints are.. The can says 15 minutes before handling.. Temperature is about 40-50 degrees in work area.
Thanks in advance for your timely wisdom..
