At the risk of appearing a total numpty, how do you actually do
solvent welds in the first place?


You get the components, and a tin of solvent, or a tube of solvent-
filler for repairing very slightly damaged or odd sized stuff. You
coat the clean pipework with solvent, assemble, and it sets.


I thought it must be something like that, but then couldn't see any such
solvent on Screwfix anywhere, so was wondering if it was maybe
"built-in" to the components somehow! Presumably it's a specific,
for-purpose solvent?
