Evening gents. Can anyone recommend a product to stick wood to glass. Its for the astrals or whatever you call them. Thanks
I put them on yesterday with double sided tape and they fixed fast, today they are coming off, is there a glue or silicone?
Just to let you know, I do occasional work on two properties where they have double glazing with astrals stuck on with double sided tape they are also coming off! You could try Stix Like ****
Not an option HA, I have eleven windows to do, each with 7 pieces of wood. Think I am going to try the stix like sh** option
Handy is entirely right the key to ensuring adhesion is making sure the glass is uber clean. Perhaps a wipe over with a bit of UPVC cleaner "the peardrop smelling one" prior to bonding might be wise.
I think that may be my problem, I am refurbing some summer house windows where a lot of the astrals had come off. I had one of the lads remove the rest of them and the glue/silicone, I then started to stick on new astrals without really checking how clean the glass was. I did price it for replacing them with that decorative lead but it needs to be 20mm wide to hide the internal astral, but I can't that find anywhere. Spent the day cutting new ones and sticking them on, only for them to start pulling off the next day. Hopefully I won't need to replace all of them. Thanks for the input gents.
What's an 'astral'? But the Stixall products by Everbuild are very powerful, and they have a clear option if you need it.
Good man kiab. And how long did I look for this stuff. Obviously not long enough. Bit late in the day for it now though, already told the customer I wouldn't be charging for something else I did because I couldn't get the lead.
Stuck them on with stix like sh now. Wish I had found the 22mm lead before though, would have looked a lot better and stayed on.
