It seems that this stuff does not get real hard and seal like rtv would. I'm not sure we are going to be able to come back along and paint over this stuff? The can indicates that it will remain pliable.

Any thoughts/comments that would help me get going in the right direction. This is kinda a pia job if you ask me.
PIA is putting it lightly.
I re-did my old house before selling it and it looked like your windows or worse. I used Dap 33 and its paintable, it should say so on the can.
You feather it with a spatula its seals ok.Should be glazing points under the old glaze to hold the window too.
Busting out the old stuff resulted in a few cracked panes.
