TIL full silicone cure days beat rushed deadlines every single time
I hear a lot of glaziers argue that cutting sealant cure short is fine to finish jobs faster. I think that's a bad call. On a recent storefront install, the builder pushed for a one-day setup. I said no, the silicone needs two full days to hold strong. We waited, and the glass stayed put through heavy wind and rain. Another team on the same block rushed and had leaks in a week. Our slow way meant no callbacks or extra trips. In glazing, giving things the time they need just works better.
