FAQs

What is the primary use of Evo-Stik Glaziers Putty?

It is designed for face glazing timber and steel door and window frames, providing a durable seal around the glass.

How is this putty different from traditional oil-based putties?

It is an acrylic formulation that offers superior durability and adhesion compared to traditional oil-based options.

Can I paint over the putty?

Yes, the putty is over-paintable, allowing you to match it to surrounding décor once it has fully cured.

What is the shelf life of this product?

The Evo-Stik Glaziers Putty has a shelf life of 2 years from the date of manufacture when stored correctly.

What size cartridge is this product available in?

This product is available in a C20 cartridge size.

Is this product suitable for interior window frames?

While designed for face glazing on timber and steel frames, its application is generally for exterior use or where face glazing is required. Always ensure it is suitable for your specific application.

How do I prepare the frame before applying the putty?

Ensure the frame is clean, dry, and free from any loose material, dust, or grease for optimal adhesion.

Troubleshooting

Putty is difficult to apply smoothly.

Ensure the cartridge nozzle is cut correctly for the desired bead size. If the putty is stiff, it may be due to cold temperatures; warm the cartridge slightly (do not overheat) before application.

Poor adhesion to the frame.

Ensure the frame surface (wood or steel) is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or old putty. For porous surfaces like bare timber, a primer might enhance adhesion, though this product is formulated for direct application.

Putty is not over-painting well.

Allow the putty to cure fully according to the manufacturer's recommendations before painting. Ensure the chosen paint is compatible and applied correctly. A primer may be beneficial for achieving a uniform finish.

Putty cracking or shrinking after application.

This can indicate insufficient putty was applied or it was applied too thinly. Ensure a consistent, adequate bead is applied to fill the gap effectively. Avoid overworking the putty.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure you have a standard caulking gun for application. The cartridge nozzle should be cut to the desired bead size for optimal application. Apply the putty consistently around the glass rebate.
