Solvent Weld Waste

I have some Floplast solvent weld solvent - will this work with Hunter MuPVC or do I need to buy compatible pipe/solvent? And don't say use compression!

Yes but check how old it is for a few pounds I'd buy some new solvent cement...regards Turnpin:8:

I don`t trust solvent weld on a pressurised pipe once the tin is 2 months old.

Thanks for all your replies! Its only a bath waste but leakage is not good when dealing with a lot of water! I'll get a new pot.
