glazing compound is better than DAP.

The original compound for setting windows was putty. DAP 33 is a BIG
improvement on putty, both in working properties and in shelf life,
and I've always liked working with it. It's a good substitute for
traditional putty in addition to holding glass well.

I thought the tube-type glazing compounds were not used in the same

putty, though; do you actually work them into a bevel in contact with

Don't know, never used the stuff in a tube. I always used the stuff that comes
in a pint plastic tub (not tube). Ace or S&T, but not DAP. Used that DAP CRAP
on one pane -- never again.
