as per previous post - I have purchased 2nd hand a Eden Monarch greenhouse.

As I put it together ... is it worth replacing the glazing bead ... this is a slide in neoprene strip.

I assume what is in there has probably compressed & hardened.

I can but it in 21m rolls.

have a look at this suggestion, it may help

As you say the original bead is likely to have deteriorated by now; I would replace it as per original specs given that it's still available (the silicone/vaseline idea is a very neat one if you've got no beading but a hell of a lot of work for an entire greenhouse!)
