Product Overview

CRL DAP® '33'® Glazing Compound is smooth and flexible, and comes ready-to-use for face glazing wood and metal window frames. Its adhesion to both glass and sash is excellent, forming a dependable air and watertight seal that resists sagging, shrinking, chalking, and cracking.

SURFACE PREPARATION & APPLICATION
