How do you seal an ABS pipe?
Because waste lines aren't pressurized, plumbers often dry-fit ABS pipes and then forget to glue them. Clean both sides of the joint with a rag, then spread an even coat of ABS glue on both sides with the applicator that comes in the glue can and fit the joint together. The glue sets in about 20 seconds.
