Used PVC cement on black (ABS?) pipe on a trailer while gluing in a Drain Master flange. Cement is P-8 Nutone PVC Cement (ASTM D-2564).  Joint looked good put didn't stress it.  Will it hold?   If not, what now?  (just another example of gaining 'experience' by doing stupid things--great fun getting 'smarter')
 
Thanks

Try to pull the joint apart.  If it's tight you'll probably  be OK.   Next time use Oaty All purpose PVC and ABS cement. http://store.watergardenweb.com/pvcabscement.html
