I always put the cement on the male part of the joint so that I don't push excess inside the pipe. I prefer medium duty clear, and wipe off the outside as soon as I push the two pieces together.

Although I agree that putting cement on both surfaces would be best (and when I have plumbed real water lines in/around my house, I do), for out purposes it is just not necessary.

No primer for me, ever. Just a extra step that, once again, just is not needed in this case.
