What's everybody else using instead of Dum-Dum? I need to
reglaze Daisy and just wondered what other people were using
since Dum-dum got took over and since stopped being made.
TVM :)

I used Sikaflex 291 marine sealant. Works well for me.

3M strip caulk, not quite as pliable as Dum Dum but does the
job.

Did my door windows with black Sikaflex EBT+ Cheap enough from
Screwfix, excess wipes off with a bit of petrol on a rag.
Sealant, adhesive and flexible when set.

My vote is for butyl glazing strip. Fitted some heated screens
into George with it a while ago. Piece of piss to use and tidy
job :thumbs:

I have just been using black silicone sealant since I ran out of
Dum-Dum, but I was told about his stuff the other day.
(Hopefully if I haven't spacked it up there should be a clicky
link thing )

Apparently the manufacturers of Dum-Dum say its the closest
thing available. Tis grey though, not black.
