Window Sash Glazing, Save America's WindowsDec 21, 2011
Excerpt from the book Save America's Windows www.historichomeworks.com Step 9c. Glaze. Apply glazing putty to glazing rabbets as bedding. If working in a cold shop warm the putty slightly with a hot-air gun or infra-red lamp. Set the pane of glass in place and be sure the bottom edge of glass is actually resting on the neck of the lower glazing rabbet (for panes up to 18" wide). Jiggle the glass slightly so that it beds down into the putty, leaving about 1/16" of putty between the glass and the shoulder of the glazing rabbet, with some putty squeezing out all along the edges of the glass. Apply and tool glazing putty in the form of a bevel to make a water-tight seal between the glass and the wood using the 3-step method: Place, Pack & Tool. Immediately "polish" outside of glass with whiting in a dry soft paint brush to clean oil from the putty off of glass and to "dust up" the surface of the putty. Flip the sash over and remove excess putty from interior joints and tool down to form water-tight seal at joint between the glass and the wood. "Polish" inside of glass with whiting. Set sash aside in correct vertical position to avoid settling of glass and distortion of beveled putty. Allow putty to cure and skin over for several days or a few weeks if possible, then the glazed sash is ready for painting. Questions & comments on glazing?

Window Sash PaintingDec 03, 2011
Excerpt from the book Save America's Windows www.historichomeworks.com Step 9d. Paint. Apply primer to putty bevels and interior seals. Lap primer 1/16" onto the glass, painting "to the line," allow to dry. Apply two top coats of paint to entire sash except side edges and face margins and top and bottom edges if they are not being painted. (Use best quality exterior house paint. Waterborne 100% acrylic paint is good, as is oil-based alkyd resin paint.) Lap paint 1/8" onto to glass. If you can (with practice) lap the paint onto the glass just a bare 1/32" to 1/16", so much the better. Allow paint to dry and cure thoroughly. The over-paint-and-scrape-back method is problematic. Slopping paint onto a wide margin of the glass and then coming back to scrape it off takes more time time than painting to a line. Slow down and learn to paint to a line, you will be saving time after three to five sashes. (Yes, you can learn to do it, I have taught 13 year old kids, and 72 year old grandmothers to do it, by showing them just once.)
