doorpanels-300x200.jpgBroken window glass can be caused by a storm or a child playing the ball. It can lead to further problems such as drafts or water seepage that can increase your energy costs.

Depending on the severity of the crack, there are several ways to repair it. Here are a few suggestions to think about.

Tape

A good old-fashioned roll of tape is a great temporary solution to cracks that have formed in windows. It's simple to use, inexpensive, and works quite well. Be sure to cover both sides of the crack to ensure that it is as secure as it can be. This will reduce the amount of air that can get into the window and cause damage to the glass, or cause it to shatter. Clear tape is an excellent alternative because it appears better than duct tap and doesn't leave sticky residue when removed.

There is also a specialized adhesive tape designed specifically to repair damaged windows and it can be purchased in most hardware stores. It is available in 2 lengths of 30' and creates a invisible patch to stop the crack or tear from spreading further.

Super Glue

Super glue can be used to repair small cracks or chips in glass. These adhesives bind with hydroxyl ions present on the surface of glass and create a firm grip in seconds. These glues can also be used to attach ceramic, metal, or Window Replacement wood to glass. They are able to withstand moisture and high temperature. If you're working with the size of a project it's worthwhile to invest in silicone or epoxy to ensure greater hold and speedier drying time.

Before applying any glue to a broken window, it's important to prepare the surface. You'll want to remove any debris from the area and ensure that both surfaces are completely dry and clean. It may be beneficial to roughen up the surface a little as well, particularly if it's extremely smooth. A gentle sanding provides the adhesive a larger surface area to stick to, resulting in stronger bonds.

When you're ready for the actual repairs, it's important to choose a high-quality glue that has been specifically designed for glass. This will ensure that the glue is safe to use and won't leave any ugly marks or fingerprints. If you can, opt for an adhesive that is clear and will be clear once it has dried. Avoid glues that expand once they dry, as this could cause cracks in glass.

You'll also have to think about how the glass will be used. If it will be kept inside and won't be exposed to a lot of stress, then a simple super glue can be used. However, if the glass is intended to be part of an exterior windshield it's best to choose an adhesive that is weatherproof.

Super glues can cure in a variety of ways. It is important to read the directions thoroughly as some require chemical accelerators in order to accelerate the drying process. It's recommended to work in a well-ventilated space and open any windows to increase air circulation, as this will aid in helping the glue dry more quickly. You can also utilize a fan to improve the air flow around your work area. This will help it to dry quicker.

Glass Repair Film

Glass repair film is an effective and practical way of making cracked windows safe until they can be professionally repaired or replaced. It's easy and quick to install and can be completed by anyone, not only an experienced tradesman. It is much less expensive than a traditional window doctor board-up and will keep heat in and rain out. It resembles windows made of glass and is perfect for schools, hospitals and offices.

When a window is broken the sharp shards left behind can cause serious injury or even death. Safety window films are constructed with a strong adhesive that make broken glass less risky. They also secure the shards inside the film. The film is translucent, so light can pass through it and it's not as ugly as board ups - especially for businesses that depend on customers visiting their premises.

The film can be easily cut with knives or scissors. It is backed by a peelable backing with a grid on it to assist in cutting. It can be positioned either side of the window, and in the event of an uneven surface, it can be overlapping by 10cm for extra security.

There are various types of safety window films in accordance with the kind of breakage. Gray safety films are recommended for star breaks, while amber safety films work best for bullseye breaks and other breaks that have lots of tiny cracks. Films should be applied on clean, wet glass. It is recommended to employ a polyethylene squeegee as well as soap solution. Once the film has adhered to the glass, it is best to let it dry for a few days.

Paint

When painting a window, it is essential to complete an excellent job. This will help the new coat of paint appear nice and will also ensure that it is able to stick well. Make sure to clean the windows and scrape away any paint or wood that has escaped. It is also essential to remove any hardware, such as latches and handles. Then, you'll want to sand the surface that will be painted. This will create a smooth surface on which the primer and paint can join.

Protect the window's area with painters tape and plastic sheeting. This will prevent paint from getting onto areas that aren't supposed to be painted. I prefer using green frog tape to do this as it provides an uncluttered line and is easy to remove when the time comes. Painters tape is a great idea for any delicate edges that are adjacent to the walls.

Once the window is protected it's time to begin painting. It is recommended to apply a few coats of primer, and let each one dry before moving on. After priming the surface, you can lightly sand the entire surface using fine-grit sandpaper. This will help to make the surface smooth for the next coat of paint. It will also help in removing dust that has accumulated.

If you are using acrylic or oil based primers and paints, then you will need to wait for them to fully dry before you begin painting. Based on the type of paint that you are using, this process can take up to 24 hours.

When the primer and paint are fully dry, it's time to paint. It is recommended to paint from the inside out, painting rails (horizontals) before stiles (verticals). This will prevent paint drips from reaching the glass. Also, be sure to keep a moist cloth on hand to wipe away any drips of paint as soon as they happen.
