This traditional, high grade linseed oil putty is made from raw linseed oil and different types of chalk. Ideal for installing windows, as well as carrying out repairs and filling gaps in window frames, doors, floors - in fact any timber repairs.

Apply the putty onto the primed wood. It can be directly painted over with linseed oil paint after application. Just ensure the skin is hard enough so the brush doesn’t drag lines into the surface.

Instructions for use on windows:

1. Empty the contents of the container and knead the putty until it's soft and even.
   If it feels too firm, gently warm it in the microwave or on a radiator.
2. Room temperature is ideal for working with the putty.
   • If it’s too sticky: knead it on cardboard or add extra chalk.
   • If it’s too firm: warm it gently or add a little extra linseed oil.
3. Make sure the edges of the glass are clean and free from paint, dirt, and old putty.
4. Brush shellac into the glazing rebate before inserting the glass. This helps extend the putty's life by preventing oil from migrating into the wood.
5. Ensure the glass is securely glazed and properly supported with glazing points.
6. Brush away oil residue from the glass using pumice powder and a clean brush.
7. Always paint your linseed oil paint strokes 2 cm onto the glass.
8. The glazing putty can be painted over immediately after application. If painting is not carried out right away, wait at least two weeks for the putty to cure. During the drying process, a surface skin forms and must be completely dry before painting.
9. Once the paint is dry, moisten the glass surface with soapy water, and use a steel putty knife and razor scraperto trim the edge of the putty (about 2 mm onto the glass).
10. You can leave the putty at room temperature for several days during use. Any leftover putty can be stored in the freezer for future use.
