Question:	Will this help get stain from vinyl siding? I have read that it might and that's why I am asking
Answer:	The shelf life is not great, so last summer I tightened the lid real good but not too good as it is hard to get off without pliers. I turned the cans upside down.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this for cleaner only do I need to another uv protectant
Answer:	Yes, I think so if it's just regular ink printing.
Question:	Can this be used on interior of an inflatable hot tub
Answer:	No, it only cleans the pipe so you can use the cement to glue the pipe. Note, it's great for getting stains out of cloth items.
Question:	Can it used on tent
Answer:	It says right on the can for ABS so I would tell you yes. WE do not do much abs and mostly pvc and cpvc, but we find it effective. It is also good at taking mill stenciling off of steel pipe if you want to paint it and or plate it.
Question:	can you use this product on an inflatable boat coming out of salt water or do you have to rinse it first
Answer:	I would qualify that as 95%. We used a PVC pipe as a "maypole" for a dance performance, and, from the stage to the audience, the very faint writing would not be visible, but it was not completely white.

User questions & answers

Question:	How long can the product be stored in typical garage conditions? (100 Summer 40 Winter
Answer:	We purchased the cleaner for that reason. Unfortunately, it just makes the ink run, but doesn't remove it, so if the ink is red and you applied the cleaner, you would no longer see the ads and words, but the ink would smear and make the pipe pink. The only thing we found that worked to remove the ads and words was using a pocket knife to scrape it off.
Question:	Useful with schedule 80 pipe as well
Answer:	This cleaner is for cleaning piping prior to contact cement. Not for general purpose cleaning.
Question:	Is this glue/sulvent also a rubber safe adheasive, using a #9 rubber plug inside a 1 1/2" PVC pipe
Answer:	It holds my surface with room left over
Question:	Do these have lids with daubers
Answer:	Yes

User questions & answers

Question:	What primer for Oatey grey cement
Answer:	I would purchase the 14”. I have a 12.9 iPad Pro with its case and it’s absolutely snug in the 13” You want to have the extra room to allow for your case.
Question:	applicator cap
Answer:	Yes I do believe that smaller bag will work better! My MacBook is the same size and I have tons of space left over. However I am not sure how bulking the smaller bag will be with chargers or any other accessories. I have 3.5 inches left in height and about 4 inches in width left over in space so si I should be fine with the small one!
Question:	What is the setting speed on this cement
Answer:	My wife's laptop measures 12" long by 8.5" (The display, diagonally measured, is 12" as well.) It fits just about perfectly, but I can tell you that a laptop that measures 13" long (not necessarily the diagonal screen measurements) should fit. Her computer is an HP Elite Book, but I can only give you the actual measurements. It is a nice little bag. I'll be happy to answer more questions if needed.
Question:	Is this item stronger than glue
Answer:	I can tell you that my iPad Pro is 12.9 inches and it fits beautifully.

User questions & answers

Question:	anyone know if this is made of stainless steel
Answer:	I'm betting it's way to flimsy...
Question:	Can i use this for plastic pvc drain pipe in the bathroom sink
Answer:	Had some calipers and measured. (FYI, the Outer Diameter of the small brush head is closer to .7" inches for me) The metal rod is just shy of 9/64" (.14 in / 3.6mm)
Question:	What is the diameter of the brush
Answer:	It should it clean my very very dirty filter hose from my fish/turtle tank.
Question:	What's the diameter of the cable? The sink drain holes are about 1/4" each. Would the cable and the brush will go through the 1/4 " holes ? Thanks
Answer:	No, this isn't stiff enough for that, for shower floor drains you should use something like https://smile.amazon.com/Vastar-Drain-Snake-Remover-Cleaning/dp/B01DP87IF8/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=drain+zipper&qid=1596634182&sr=8-5
