May 15, 201015 yr Well that answered part of his question. Would it be cheaper to buy windshield sealant and is it the same thing?
May 15, 201015 yr Well that answered part of his question. Would it be cheaper to buy windshield sealant and is it the same thing?Dunno what he's talking about really. Windshield sealant usually comes in a tube. It's normally a polyurethane mixture. There are some Butyl mixtures as well, but those are more geared toward homes.
May 15, 201015 yr That's what I was wondering. But he said rolls. So his cousin got it somewhere. And I'm always up for saving some money.
May 15, 201015 yr I think your talking about glazing bead. we use it on commercial windows. Pretty much the same thing. yes, it will work the same.
May 15, 201015 yr The rope he has is infact for installing windsheilds. I buy my butyl rope at the local parts store.and yes they are the same thing.

May 16, 201015 yr The rope he has is infact for installing windsheilds. I buy my butyl rope at the local parts store.and yes they are the same thing.Actually, they're not the same thing. They're both butyl compounds extruded and rolled up the same way, but they aren't the same butyl compound. There's no doubt that they could be used for some of the same purposes, but I would never suggest that anybody use the product I sell to set a windshield. My Extruded Butyl Rope is the same as the adhesive on the CLD Tiles I sell. It's optimized for vibration damping, not sealing.
