As an 'oldie but goodie', and female too, you'll have to forgive me if my question sounds basic! I'm replacing the plastic waste pipe under my kitchen sink, and have so far removed all the old components. Before installing the new parts, I need to know if it'd be OK to use Boss Green on the joints, simply because I've run out of Boss White and I want to get the job finished!

Many thanks.

Wendy

Boss green should go in the bin, but if thats all you have use a bit first.

Boss Blue or Fernox is best.

What on earth are you using it for

I've always used Boss White in the past (force of habit I s'pose), to help seal the joints in plastic piping. Should I not do this then? As I said earlier, I'm female, so what do you expect

No you shouldn't.

The fittings will be solvent weld or push fit.

Solvent is a special adhesive, push fit you should bevel the end of the pipe and use either a silicon grease or vaseline as a lubricant.

And a happy new year in about 2 minutes
