Ever wonder how to Fix Broken, Cracked or Curved Glass?
Do you want to know how to fix broken, cracked or curved glass? In today's instructional video, I have two new products to test for repairing broken glass. This is an experiment for me because I'm looking for a neat repair for a piece of broken curved glass. Broken curved glass is very expensive to replace. In many cases, the glass panel exceeds the cost of the entire furniture cabinet. My curio cabinet is no exception. I'm hoping for a repair that doesn't call attention to the repair. Maybe my experiment will exceed my expectation.
Save a LOT of $$$
I like my curio cabinet. It serves a nice purpose in my upstairs hallway and holds a lot of memorabilia. I hate the thought of trashing it just because it has a broken pane of glass. There are many products that repair glass but which one does the best job at making a discreet repair? The problem that I foresee is light reflecting on the broken edge. My chemist nephew tells me that if I know the compounds used in the glass, then I can make an invisible repair. Honestly, that's not going to happen because the manufacturer of the curio is out of business. Such is the case with many antiques as well.
I'll teach you how to fix broken, cracked or curved glass!
My glass repair technique will fix the break but will it fix the appearance too? If this works, I can think of many practical uses for the products that I'm trying: Clear Gorilla Glue and a DIY Windshield Repair Kit. Which product do I like best? Is resin even adhesive? Are they good enough to use alone or do I need to combine them for better results? Give this video a view and see for yourself! You don't need any special tools. All you need is a sunny day, warm weather and this materials list. Let's see how to fix broken or cracked glass...The DIY site that teaches you how to create and succeed with all projects around the home. www.reneeromeo.com

Beautiful cabinet, my Mom has a secretary's desk that has bent glass and we were talking one day about replacing that glass and we looked it up, and it was $1700 dollars just for a small piece, so I see why you would fix it yourself if can. That is a talent I would never think to it by myself. Great video!

Nancy, After all my research, I think the business to get into is making curved glass! Wow - I was shocked by the pricing too!! Thank goodness for the chemists that came up with these strong (nearly undetectable) adhesives. It saved my cabinet from the trash heap because one piece of curved glass costs more than the entire cabinet. I happen to love it too so I'd be heart broken. Thanks for the nice note! Renee

Hello. I have an antique reverse-painted light-up glass bar sign with a clean break through the middle. I’ve been looking for a method to repair, as it can’t be replaced. I’ve tried various glass glues, but none hold and the crack is still very visible if it does. Yours is the first method I’ve seen that has true potential to fix my item. One side is painted, so I won’t be able to scrape any overflow. I’ll have to just be extra careful. Thanks for giving me hope!

There's this spray stuff that you can spray on glass and windows to make them foggy. I found that if you have two broken pieces, you can spray some window fog into the spray bottle cap or a tinfoil tray and let it pool up a bit. Then paint or dab it onto the broken edges using a thin paint brush or Q-tip. THEN once the fog sets, use epoxy on both pieces to place the glass back together. Wait about 5 mins to clean the excess with acetone. Then wait about 12 hours before testing the durability. You'll still see a crack, but because of the window fog it won't reflect the light on the broken edges. I find that helps hide the crack really well.

My understanding of how chipped auto glass repair works is a plastic sheet is laminated between 2 layers of glass. When chipped, the plastic is exposed. The repair resin bonds with the plastic, not the glass, to affect the repair.

Just so I understand this properly for the final repair you use the clear Gorilla Glue, while holding it together with either the clips or tape and then you use the resin from the repair kit to try and patch up some of the remaining cracks or did you only use the Gorilla Glue alone?? Also do you think this would work on glass that isn't necessarily clear like the glass I have is blue
@ReneeRomeo
@ReneeRomeo 2 года назад
AnubisGodess 23, Great questions! Yes, I used only the gorilla glue in the end but if you do this and still see some areas that aren't filled, you can always go back with the glass repair kit and fill them in. As far as colored glass is concerned, I don't know if it will matter. If you can get the pieces to mesh together really well I think this could still work. Just clamp, tape or whatever else you can think of to get it to seal tightly. Best wishes! Please let me know how it worked - if you try. Renee

Hi Pavonay, You can have a new piece custom made but it's very likely that you will not be able to find a local company to do it. Van Dyke's Restorers (online) has a service where you send in a tracing of the broken piece and they'll make it for you. I didn't go that route because it was going to cost about $500.00 for the one piece that you saw me repair - almost as much as I paid for the entire cabinet! Then, I would have to install the piece myself. There are small plastic clips that I used to secure mine back in place with tiny screws. You can purchase them through Van Dyke's website too.

Hi Rick, It must be all the callouses on my hands - lol. Yes, I should have worn gloves. Thanks for the heads-up! I don't want anyone getting injured. Renee

Neither of those products really worked it was obvious. I have a customer with a 15k oak curio cabinet with two cracked pieces about 12 X 48 “ and getting them out would be as labor intensive as having them completely replaced. It’s to bad there isn’t enough of this type of work to make enough money at it. Not to mention if the glass is beveled, curved, tinted, or frosted it’s going to require exact measurements or an almost complete example to even attempt to replace.

Roland the Thompson gunner, Yes - unfortunately the glass needs to be removed in order to get proper adhesion and transparency. Making curved glass would be a good job to get into! Best wishes with this project, Renee
