I have been working a new add on repairing blown seals on double glassing. I am still doing test with my method but so far so good. I need to check how long my repair will last.
Do you chaps thing could do well? ;) ;)

I looked into the kit, but for the money, no guarantee that it will work on every unit, and the time it takes to repair a unit, i just replace them as an add on for customers. A friend of mine bought the kit 2 years ago, he does a lot of misted units, but on most units now he just replaces them as well, as he said on average 2 out of 5 units after 3 months he was having to go back and replace.

The important thing with replacing double glazing is to clean out drain a the foot of each pane it a slot cut at the bottom of each frame these block up and the double glazing then stands in water which with time will leak into the double glazing unit.If you clean the glass water should run freely out under the window frame.

Yes that is just one way that a sealed unit can break down. ;)
Out of interest, what kit are you looking at?

I am not using a kit I have devised my own method maybe a different approach.I am still testing.
