Not sure if Phillip Parker is still the owner of armadale doors and leadlights , he was my first foreman at searls some 42 years ago. Brilliant tradesman.
Thanks for the tutorial, much appreciated. Can you let me know the name of the rotary brush or provide a link. I've been searching for it and haven't found it
Can you please tell me the difference between glazing putty and what other studios are calling lead light cement. I have spoken to people restoring lead lights and they swear there is a difference but when you look at the ingredients for normal glazing putty it is also made up of calcium carbonate and linseed oils which is the main ingredients for lead light cement recipes.
Putty is lead light cement before the blacking component is added. Putty is grey. Otherwise the components are the same, although lead light cement can sometimes have a bit more linseed oil added to make it softer. The linseed oil evaporates over time which sets the putty/cement.
Excellent instructions - clear, concise and easy to understand - thank you

So my putty is the right sort, but it is sticky as anything and not like yours. Have I over-heated it in the microwave or something?
What tool are you using doing that

@@apricusstainedglass Can black flex seal liquid be used instead of the lead putty?
@@whitrich47 No, best avoided.
@@apricusstainedglass it was just a thought. I'll take your advice
