Product Review: DAP Seal & Peel
Jan. 4th, 2007 09:00 amA while back someone, I think it was ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
nomadmwe or siriel, was wondering how to winter-proof windows without using the obnoxious saran-wrap stuff.
Enter DAP Seal & Peel.
This stuff WORKS. Seriously - we sealed off the bottoms of all of the windows in the house and noticed an IMMEDIATE difference. When we'd only done the downstairs, upstairs was always NOTICEABLY cooler than downstairs. Now that we've sealed the upstairs windows as well, the house is retaining warmth REALLY well. We're actually planning to use our last tube to seal off the top joins of all the windows (where the upper and lower sashes meet) and then we'll be living in a moderately hermetically sealed bubble. :^D As a double-bonus, M won't spend all winter messing with it the way he did with the saran-wrap - I just WISH we'd known about this stuff when we lived in MA, because our electric bills would have been much more bearable.
It's pretty noxious smelling as it dries, so I recommend applying it on a warm day when you can open doors for ventilation. (When we did the upstairs I joked that we needed to open the windows to let the house air out...)
