Two questions:

Is there a paint which you can use over silicone filler that does not
peel
off?

Can I get a thinner less rapid drying silicone that I can paint on to a
surface to waterproof it?

what kind of surface?

Steve

OLD wood. I have an attic window which I cannot afford to replace. The
wood
is original and allows water through on the front where I can reach. I
applied silicone and smoothed it in with my finger and it appears to have
worked. I would like to be prepared in case I have missed a bit.

FlexAcryl or similar. A flexible waterproof 'paint'.

Used by councils to repair flat roofing, also used on vertical surfaces.
Think several thin coats rather than one thick one.
