DAP 33 Glazing Putty Sealant For Wood & Metal Window Frames, Crack-Proof, White, 273-mL

Thank you for posting your feedback. DAP '33' Window Glazing. There have been no changes to the product formulation as you speculate. Sagging (slumping and/or loss of adhesion) can result from number of conditions including but not limited to surface preparation, such as failure to properly clean, dry and prime the application surface with an oil-based primer). With respect to your commentary indicating: “Worst is that it takes a long time to dry, so you have to wait weeks before you can paint it (like they say you must)”, which would be considered normal and expected. '33' Window Glazing is a traditional oil-based glazing compound, as such, the drying rate of this product is considerably slower than most other products, such as caulks, sealants, adhesives, and patching compounds. Oil-based formulas are highly dependent on warm temperature and proper air circulation (as is required for all oxidative formulas). As indicated on the product package label guidance and supporting product literature for DAP '33' Glazing: "Product Painting 1. DAP ‘33’ Window Glazing must be painted after it has skinned over and attained a firm set. Firm set is typically demonstrated when a light finger touch to the surface does not leave a fingerprint. Firm set may occur in as little as 7 days after application, but more likely 2-3 weeks after application. Painting must be done only after firm set is achieved. NOTE: The glazing compound may still feel soft and may not have full adhesion even after it has skinned over and attained a firm set. Accordingly, sash should be operated carefully for approximately three weeks on the average. Glazing may still be damaged if sash is handled carelessly. Full adhesion will develop within two to four months, depending on job conditions.
