I get it from the big box stores. Any glue is fine as long as youre using it for its intended application. There are different glues for pvc, cpvc, abs. They also make all in ones as well which is good for gluing pvc to bulkheads. I also use the clear primer since it looks a cleaner than the purple.

Tangit is the only thing I’ve used for ages:

Funny story: it got banned for a little while here in Sweden due to health concerns. They had to un-bann it rather rapidly as there was no working substitutes…turns out stuff that melts plastic is never healthy. Shocker!
