Glazing School. How To Professionally Glaze A Historic Wood Window Sash

[@SammyEddie]

I’ve watched 20 videos on glazing. This guy has the cleanest lines IMO. He doesn’t go too shallow or too thick. Good angles. Starting in corner and working out. No other video on KZbin says that (that I can tell).

[@swampyankee72]

The corners are where I struggle. Now I have to rush off and buy some magic dust! Thank You!

[@mjsandheinrich894]

This guy is good. Makes it look so easy. About 25 years ago I did about 24 sashes , I was not nearly as proficient. I got decent by the end . Wish I would have seen this before I did my windows

Been doing this for 40 years never heard of the dusting trick, I love you right now 🥰

Palm & thumb. That's how I was taught when I was a glaziers apprentice. Nice video.

Your teaching skill style is easy to understand and very impressive.. Thankyou 👏

You make this look SO easy. I just did 3 old windows with the tube. So difficult!!!! Thanks for the tips

[@georgemckinney2810]

Glazed my first window today. It was nowhere near as easy as Steve makes it look!

Excellent video, loved the majik dust trick! Many thanks.

Glazing old sashes is a nightmare. The old glazing never comes out uniformly. In some places, where the wood is water damaged, the glaze just pops out, but in other places, the glaze is hard and difficult to extract without damaging the rabbet. I’ve tried every tool. Flexible scrapers, heat guns, multi tools, and utility knives. It’s never easy. Especially when you reglaze the windows in place.

[@SammyEddie]

I struggled too until I just decided to burn a window completely if I needed too with the heat gun, and then things started to click. I was rushing the heat gun. Slow it down and let the heat soften the glaze. Keep going back and forth until it almost falls out.

For removing old glazing and paint a Steam box helps too if you build one and are able to remove the sashes to put in steam box for 30 mins. They have a few diy versions of a steam box if you search or you can buy one. This would be for if you have several windows or more. If just a single them I a totally agree with heat gun as mentioned above

15:49 yeah I do that with my shop vac close to me :) Working Alone, small shop, no big dust collector. No place …

[@Mrtall81]

What compound is he using?

[@WoodWindowMakeover]

Sarco Type M Multiglaze

[@mjsandheinrich894]

He is so right about glazier points . Dummy beginners like me end up using those gigantic points so you have to make a thick putty line . I didn’t like the way it looked so I started clipping part of the points off . They don’t make it easy for a newly to get it right. Use the diamond points even though they have to be ordered

[@ikust007]

I have much difficulty to make my corners sharp when glazing vertically

Are you not glazing on a table?

[@ikust007]

17:32 damn! But yes good idea to clean asap

[@WoodWindowMakeover]

Man thanks for all your comments. I don’t think I can respond to them all!

@@WoodWindowMakeover it’s ok! I really just do that when I really appreciate someone’s work:)

[@ikust007]

For stained glass I use sawdust

[@ikust007]

It’s only 20min drywall compound ?? Or is it a mixed with Plâtre de Paris?

[@john8795]

I was wondering this too, I always heard to use chalk dust

[@duncanbrown5433]

Does durrabond 90 work?

[@ikust007]

Different way than me. I generally make a “roll” (sausage..;)

[@ikust007]

9:46 beautiful

[@ikust007]

Yeah: corners are very hard

[@ikust007]

The glazing / painting of it is very different than Allback philosophy. Not saying bad or good. Different

[@ikust007]

5:43 agree ! You make it look easy . It’s not :)

[@darrellstrom]

What is "magic dust" ? Twenty minute mud doesn't make sense..

[@ikust007]

16:57 mask : absolutely necessary. Nanoparticules

Durabond easy sand 20min
