Last year I plumbed a 275 for a friend using the blue pvc.
Turned out looking pretty cool.

I bought spray paint that bonded to the PVC plumbing and safe for the tank. Got all the color you want and a lot cheaper.

I plan the blue as well, that and white fittings. Thanks
There is a guy on here that ran his hole system with the BRS pvc in blue. It look really nice.

Just started to use this stuff. Seems like this is a very tight fit. Did you have any issues getting it to seat correctly? Have not done much plumbing but have messed with the normal stuff you get a Lowe's I can get that stuff to fit all the way in the joint dry but with the BRS PVC and fitting I have more than a 1/4 inch left to go and it will not budge.
After I have primer and cement on it will it fit the way it should? Or should I have a rubber mallet ready just in case?

Getting ready to glue and little worried that it will not seat correctly.
If it doesn't of course leaks are the main issue. But if I don't get the full inch of pipe into the joints it will not fit in the sump.
Any advise would be great.
