Join steve as he shows you how easy it is to glaze a sash.
Glazing wood windows.
Quarter round works for most windows.
Applying a smooth perfect bead of window glazing compound is fussy time consuming work.
One method is to roll out a thin bead and place it on the frame.
Make sure the bead is large enough so that the glaze squeezes out for a good seal.
Leah from see jane drill demonstrates the process of re glazing old wood windows.
Apply a thin bead of putty to the frame.
Finally turn the sash right side up and glaze the bottom of each pane.
Place the sash upside down and glaze the top of each pane first.
Then press the glass into it.
Though the glazing technique doesn t change it s important to work in this specific order.

If the glazing is cold you can heat the glazing putty for about 20 seconds with a heat gun on low.
Set the glass in place over a light bead of latex caulk.
Turn the sash sideways to glaze both sides of each pane.
Of course he s glazed 10 000 sashes and makes it look easy but then again he s had the practice.
