Oatey Clear Primer for CPVC and PVC, NSF Listed

Prep PVC and CPVC pipe and fittings for a clean, watertight solvent weld with Oatey Clear Primer. The clear, low-VOC formula cuts surface dirt, grease, and grime — then softens the pipe wall so the cement bites into a chemically welded joint instead of just sticking. Clear color won’t leave a purple stain on cabinet sides or finished walls when you’re working in tight spaces under sinks, behind walls, or on exposed installations.
