Dap 10.1 Oz. White Advanced VOC-Compliant Exterior Gutter & Flashing Sealant

I am restoring 39 windows in my 1936 colonial. Way too cost prohibitive to hire out. I've been at it for 2 years; my only experience, I am a lawyer by trade, is with my own windows. I have found DAP 33 "easy" to use and there is a uniform consistency from can to can. Simply work it in your hand, apply and cut it with whatever knife you can work with. I keep a little linseed oil on hand and occasionally lightly coat my knife if I find it dragging. It took a couple windows to improve my technique, but I can do a 6 over 6 in an hour or so. I tried Sher Wms glazing (I use their paint), but too sticky and much harder to work with. Bottom line, if you have some experience, this product works as advertised.

I was blessed to receive a lesson from my father, a British trained journeyman carpenter/cabinetmaker. Roll it in your hands to soften it. That's the most valuable lesson. It's an art form, a bit like golf, the more you do, the more you'll love the exercise. As a pro heritage restoration painter, there is no other choice on the market. Also makes a great filler for nail holes & joints on interior trim. One just needs to take care like any pro should. Not for amateurs who can't recover from a mistake.
