When it comes to window restoration or glass replacement, the product you choose for glazing can make all the difference in the durability, finish, and speed of your project. Traditional linseed oil putty has long been the go-to option, but it comes with drawbacks: slow curing times, limited adhesion strength, and vulnerability to cracking over time.
That’s why more professionals and DIYers are making the switch to modern alternatives—like Sellaseal’s Sash Glaze, a high-performance hybrid polymer glazing compound.
Here’s why Sellaseal’s Sash Glaze outperforms traditional putty:
1. Versatile Use on New and Old Putty
Sash Glaze isn’t just for new glass installs—it’s also a game-changer for repairs. Got cracked but stable old putty? This product can be skimmed over the surface to reseal and extend the life of your existing glazing. It stops water from getting in and causing timber rot, saving you time and money down the track.
2. Ready to Paint in Hours, Not Weeks
One of the biggest pain points with linseed oil putty is the drying time—it can take weeks before it’s ready to paint. With Sash Glaze, you can paint in just a couple of hours. That’s a faster turnaround for you, and a finished job that doesn’t have to wait on outdated materials to cure.
3. Incredible Adhesion and Added Strength
With a grab strength of 300kg per 10cm², Sash Glaze doesn’t just seal the glass—it reinforces the sash itself. Acting like both an adhesive and a sealant, it helps hold the glass in place and strengthens the window structure.
4. Quick-Drying and Easy to Work With
This hybrid polymer is easy to apply, smooth out, and clean up. It’s dry to the touch quickly, and paintable within 24 hours. That means you can complete more projects, more efficiently, without compromising on quality.
In Summary:
Don’t let outdated materials slow you down or risk the integrity of your windows. Sellaseal’s Sash Glaze is the smarter, stronger, and faster solution for glazing work—whether you’re restoring heritage windows or installing new glass.
