Brand new and great video!!!: "How to install a toilet "
• How to install a toilet -~-
Having the opportunity of replacing or installing a glass on an old window is for me being part of the prolongation of history. Old houses are a treasure for future generations and any time we can contribute to that is time invested in the future generations. In this video I want to guide you through the steps to take when fixing them, I hope you find it useful, thank you for watching my videos, please suscribe, share and like

    I haven't replaced glass in a window fram since the 80's/90's. I couldn't remember how we did it. After watching a few videos none of them used this method, but this is how we did it exactly!! Thank you for the refresher. ❤

    Thanks for the video! Just a couple of tips. First, (if you can), use a Dremel to take out the old caulking/glazing. I used the wood cutting attachment and then cleaned up window pane with a sandpaper one. It's MUCH faster than going around using a hammer and screwdriver/chisel/putty knife, etc. Plus there is no BANGING! These old windows can be pretty fragile sometimes! It also preserves the original, old triangle/diamond metal inset pieces that they put the window in with in the first place. Second, (again if you can and have one), use a small chisel instead of a putty knife to insert the push points. Chisels are stronger and can exert more downward pressure on the push points and they give you more control.

    You should show the process of removing the glazing. Some people use heat, or "careful elbow grease" That process is the most complicated.

    From what I can tell, you did not put on an oil-based primer before glazing. Is that right? Looking at the DAP website, they are saying you need to put one on before using the Latex Glazing. But I am interested in skipping the primer & am wondering whether that would be acceptable. I am curious your thoughts & experience with this. Thank you.

    Hi there. I believe my windows are the exact same size. What was the precise size replacement pane you purchased? Thx

  • @NotSoCrazyNinja

    You have to measure what size panes go in your window. There is a tiny ledge that holds the glass pane. Measure the glass so that it covers the opening plus the ledge. Measure every opening to be sure they are all the same because some older windows may have slightly different measurements due to lack of precision when they were made or possible due to warpage over time.

    you can break glass easily with push points-not necessary if you can leave the sash flat overnite-also-use acylic latex with silicone(paintable)-use painters tape and tape the glass all around-then use your finger after caulking and remove tape immediately-perfect job everytime-AURORA GLASS-EAST AURORA NY

    Arnold Eisensmith great information, I still recommend the push points to help keeping the glass in place, making a little hole with a knife before putting the push points helps

    Push points also fill beds with clear silicone prior to glazing especially if exterior windows...Tube glaze s good if you have a lot of windows that need painting because there printable in a day unlike 33 glaze which can take up to a month to properly set

    I would have liked to see how you removed the old glass and the little pins that kept it in place. Do I finish breaking this window that I've got and pull them with pliers or is there a trick to it? I don't have all this time to keep looking at videos; no one is showing how to take the old glass out. I took the old putty out with elbow grease; I just kept scraping until it was all out but now I've got the little metal things. I'm just going to break the freaking window the rest of the way; this is going to be messy and challenging not to cut myself.

  • @wetdewlap8741

    Do you take the little spaced things out? Or glaze over them? Do you do both sides? Do you wipe off with damp cloth before it dries on wood? I’m confused?

    The glazing looks bad. The lines aren't straight at all. I have used that DAP in a tube too and it's so soft it's hard to make straight lines. I like how fast it dries so it can be painted soon but not sure if I want such sloppy lines. Maybe it's possible with practice but I'm not sure if it isn't a lost cause. Maybe regular tub putty is the only way to get straight lines?

    Unfortunately we do. I work in the Tools department which helps with the Hardware department services. It took me a while to figure out a technique that would let me cut a clean plate of glass on the first break. I used to shatter the first two tries before I would finally get it.

    If you went through the trouble of taking out the window and removing the old glazing, you should have went the extra step and cleaned off all the old paint, sand it all, clean it all, repaint, let it dry, then readd the glass panes and reglaze it. While the window was out of the window frame, could have also cleaned up the window frame too. If you already are over halfway there, might as well go all the way to save yourself future issues.
