In general, putty has always been used almost exclusively in bedding, repairs and maintenance of wooden window frames and wooden door frames but with the introduction of newer technology glazing putty sealants, the use of this versatile material has extended to frames comprising of some plastics, metals and other materials alongside the traditional timber structures usually associated with putty. The most popular type of putty for many years has been the kind of material that comes in a tub or bucket and is a thick paste-like substance commonly composed of linseed oil, chalk (calcium carbonate) and other additives that assist the drying or curing of the material. In recent times, newer glazing putty sealants are available, commonly composed of modern sealant materials such as modified polymer (MP), modified silane (MS) or hybrid polymer and can be found packaged in mastic sealant style cartridges making them easier to apply directly to gaps, cracks or imperfections etc. and finish to a neat, cosmetic finish.
