How to Unglue PVC Pipe

First, you need to get rid of the problematic joint. You can do this by cutting the pieces at the point they connect. A hacksaw will work correctly in giving the best cut.

The next step is ensuring that you get the fitting that meets your new needs. Here, you need to find a pipe that will fit the end that you didn’t cut off. That will ensure that it matches and does not require any stress to fit appropriately.

Then, go ahead and apply the primer on the joining surfaces. You need to ensure that you have used the primer outside of one piece and inside the other. Then allow it a few minutes to dry. That will provide a good foundation for the glue you will apply in the next step.

Lastly, you can now glue the surfaces and make them stick together. Here, you need to ensure that you do it accurately by making sure the pipe reaches the socket before the glue dries. Also, avoid applying any pressure before the glue completely dries to form a strong bond.
