[DIY] Re: Window glazing---Hint.

I know it is a little late in your case, but in the future and for those others who might not be profession glazers, if you will run a strip of wide masking tape around the window about 1/2 inch from the edge of the glass and then glaze to the edge of the tape you will get a nice straight edge and avoid much of the mess. Wait a day or so before removing the tape and when it is removed pull away from the fresh putty. Use the blue masking tape for easy removal.

No water, 2 weeks, Wash in a month.
Until, get a single edge razor blade, tool, $3
and a package of 5-10 blades... $2.

Avoid getting too near the glazing, and if possible,
work AGAINST the wood... IOW, pressure not OUT,
where just glazing and glazing diamonds/staples,
support the glass. This OUGHT top be easy, as there
ought not be any glazing, inside, anyway.

If unclear, ask B4.
