Title: Sealant on glass canopy
Post by: Slash on January 21, 2018, 03:03:57 pm: Hi Guys,
I went around to quote a house yesterday with a glass canopy type thing,it's a new build and where they had the glass was alot of sealant all over the joints,what chemical is best for this as I don't want to scratch the glass.
