Hi Mitchell,

Thanks for your warm welcome. I have done a fair bit of renos in the past but have always used the the linseed putty, so I stood in the aisle having product indecision and decided to come home and read up 😆

I'll give the Earls a go, it was the one I walked around the store with in my hand, so I should have trusted my instincts. 

Many thanks again

Do you need to redo the glazing @potteringaround? It looks quite reasonable in the image, though it might not showcase the issue.
