This isn't woodworking exactly - but it's related ... I'm doing up my wooden french windows - including cutting out a rotten section of the rain sill and replacing it - and repainting.
Having sanded away all the loose paint etc, I'm down to bare wood on all the lower surfaces. There doesn't seem to be much in the way of sealant/putty/etc between the wood and the double-glazing panels too keep out the wet. Can I use something like silicone sealant here - or is there a more appropriate material? Should I apply before or after undercoating?
