Hello. Have developed a leak in the pipe under my sink. Have used LS-X to glue the pipes together, but there is still a tiny drip. There's no cracks in the pipes, they're good as new so think it's how they're fixed together. Is there something else I can try? Please see photos attached - photo 1, what it looked like before, photo 2 - what it looks like now. Thanks!

Yes, it's an Ikea kitchen. Any advice? Was thinking of trying repair tape and/or fiberglass wrap. Not sure if silicone or rubber tape is better? Thank you!

Cut out and renew section. What’s the grey pipe to the right, a reducer?
Grey pipe to the right goes directly to kitchen sink. That just slides in and doesn't seem to be too much of a problem. It's more the two I've tried to glue as it's pressured into an angle once everything is connected. Thanks!
