    glue for repairing air leak in pvc pipe

    I did not put tape around it because the back side of the juncture is pressed flush with the concrete wall. And to the the one side as I said before, it comes out of a wall. Also, I did not want to mess up the plastic by leaving sticky tape residue behind which is hard to clean off. Maybe I...
