Interesting Corwyn, I've never heard of that product.

On a similar note, does anyone out there know of a natural/healthy/ 
green putty stick to use instead of the regular toxic ones to fill in  
nail holes? I have a client who is installing new wood windows and  
can't use the putty sticks.

Thanks.
