- Primer Usage
Using a "clear" primer makes it impossible for any inspector to determine whether a primer has been used. Because of this the market place has called for a primer that has a purple color. In this way an inspector can see the purple color on the pipe and fittings and can know for sure that a primer has been used.

- What To Do If Purple Primer Is Spilled
Cut pipe square and deburr. Clean and dry joining surfaces.; Check dry fit. Fitting should go over end of pipe easily but become tight about 1/3 to 2/3 of the way on.; Use a suitable applicator at least 1⁄2 the size of the pipe diameter; for larger sizes use brush or roller. Do not use a rag as repeated contact with skin may cause irritation or blistering.; Apply primer to inside of fitting equal to socket depth; without delay, coat pipe and end up to socket depth until soft. Apply again to fitting socket. Avoid puddling.; On bell-end pipe, do not coat or allow primer to run beyond socket depth.; To check penetration, scratch surface. Recoat if necessary. Actual time for priming action is affected by pipe diameter and temperature.; Immediately while surfaces are still wet, apply appropriate Black Swan cement following directions on cement can.
