Since it's pool plumbing, it's reasonable to assume it's PVC water
pipe.
Yes Sir. In the desert tough it is usually painted to reduce UV damage
for above ground pipe. A poster here one time suggested using a shop
vac on a pipe, add the PVC glue so the vacuum pulls the glue into the
crevice of the leak. Never done that but it did sound reasonable, at
least for a short term fix.
