The Glazing Putty (kgs) offered by Ngong Hills Merchants is a premium-grade sealing and fixing material specially formulated for glass installation and window glazing applications. Known for its excellent workability and strong adhesion, this product is trusted by contractors, builders, and DIY users across Kenya for achieving professional-quality finishes on glass and wood surfaces.

Superior Formulation and Performance

Glazing putty is a vital material in construction, especially in window and door fabrication. The putty supplied by Ngong Hills Merchants is made from a refined blend of linseed oil and high-quality fillers, resulting in a smooth, pliable, and easy-to-apply consistency. This composition ensures a secure and airtight bond between the glass and the frame, preventing water leakage and air drafts.

Its formulation provides exceptional adhesion to both timber and metal window frames, while maintaining flexibility to accommodate thermal expansion and contraction. This prevents cracking or separation over time — a key factor in extending the life of your installations.

Durable and Weather-Resistant

Kenya’s diverse climate demands materials that can withstand intense sunlight, moisture, and temperature fluctuations. This glazing putty has been tested for long-term durability, resisting shrinkage, cracking, and hardening even after years of exposure. Once cured, it forms a protective seal that helps safeguard glass panes from vibration, wind, and environmental stress.

Builders and glass installers rely on it for its smooth finish and easy sanding properties, which allow for quick painting or further finishing after application. When properly applied, it ensures a clean, airtight seal that enhances the overall appearance and performance of the installation.

Ease of Application

Whether used in large-scale construction or small repairs, this putty is designed for easy handling and smooth application. Its consistency allows for precise placement around glass edges and corners. For best results, professionals recommend kneading it briefly before use to activate the natural oils, ensuring pliability and strong adhesion.

After glazing, the putty can be painted over with oil-based or synthetic enamel paints once a surface film has formed. This helps integrate the putty seamlessly with the frame’s finish, creating a polished and durable outcome.

Practical Applications

Glazing putty is used extensively in window fabrication, glass installation, and minor building repairs. It provides an effective seal in both new installations and renovation projects. Some common applications include:

• Fixing and sealing glass panes in wooden or metal window frames

• Glazing for doors and partition panels

• Minor surface repairs before painting

• Sealing gaps and edges in decorative or architectural glasswork

Its adaptability makes it an essential material for builders, interior finishers, and maintenance technicians alike.
