Name of substance to keep glasspa e attached to wood frame for interior skylight

and just so people know, there was and i think there still is a black glaziers compound, the same dap 33. it has gotten very hard to find. can possibly still be ordered but most stores will not carry it, even if you ask.

Window putty or glazing putty. It starts off soft and hardens over time. Traditionally it was made with linseed oil. It’s still available but there are also modern variations. I believe Sarco is a popular brand.

I think the putty has to be used in combination with glazer’s points.

My old carpentry book says leather can be used as a superior alternative to putty that will remain supple over time. I don’t know if that would still be true.

dap still make the glaziers compound and HD still carries it. some hardware stores as well. now that i think of it, it is “Dap 33”. it will stay soft for a long time, hence the need for the points the others mention.
