my double glazing is getting old and doesnt seal as well as it used to , i think ive seen a foam adhesive strip that will improve the problem but i cant for the life of me find where i saw it or even remember what its called.
is there such a product or have i had another senior moment and imagined it ?

If its UPVC double glazing then you might want to get the appropriate profile rubber strip from a double glazing supplier.That gum you like is coming back in style.0 -
