I just installed a substantial about of Sch 40 PVC 1.25" water pipe and just realized the cement I used says it is for PVC conduit. Is this going to be problem?

I would not think so, If it dissolved the PVC it should be fine.

It may just have a different dye, or lack there of.

Did you use a Cleaner or Primer ? Can you pull the joint apart ?

Inspectors like to see the correct dye color.

I used clear and definitely primed all the water lines. I have always used the same cement on conduit and water PVC. I just saw the "conduit" in the description. All the joints held as they should.
Thanks for the reply.

Hey, wait a minute.

This is awkward, but...
