How to use this product

  • Depth of rebate: 10mm for 3-4mm glass, 15mm for 5-8mm glass.

Handy tips

  • Do not use kerosene, turps or other material to aid in working the putty
  • Allow putty to skin before applying paint
  • Product can be applied by hand or with a putty knife. Add a few drops of linseed oil on the hands or knife to make for easier working
  • Putty can thicken in cold weather.  Warming the putty by working it in the hands before application will soften it.
  • Putty must be painted in exterior applications.
  • High humidity, cold weather and use in interior applications can extend skinning times.
  • Putty can separate on prolonged standing.  If excessive oil is observed on the surface try to work the entire mixture together to redistribute the oil.
  • Before painting, clean and dust & filler particles using Selleys Sugar Soap or Selleys Super Kleen.
