How to Repair a Broken Window
Whether from a bad storm or a ball thrown by your children's neighbors broken windows are not something to ignore. It can lead to further issues, such as water seepage or a draft that drives up your energy bills.
Depending on the size of the crack, there are several options to fix it. Here are some options to think about:
Tape
A good old-fashioned roll of tape is a great temporary solution to cracks that have formed in windows. It's cheap, easy to use and works well. Cover both sides of the damaged area to ensure it's as secure as you can. This will decrease the amount of air that will enter the window and cause damage to the glass or shatters. Clear tape is a good option since it looks much more appealing than duct tape, and doesn't leave a sticky residue after you take it off.
You can also purchase specialized adhesive tape at most hardware stores. It comes in two 30-foot lengths, and creates a patch that is invisible. This will stop the tear or crack from spreading. It can be used to repair windows for boat enclosures as well as RV or tent vinyl window and soft top car windows. It's easy to install and doesn't require any special tools or knowledge. Simply cut the correct size and remove the release paper. Then, apply. It is resistant to salt and UV and is made from a strong material that is able to endure harsh conditions. This can help you save money by not having to purchase a complete window replacement.
Super Glue
Super glue can be used to repair chips or cracks in glass. These adhesives bind with hydroxyl ions on the glass's surface making a strong grip in a matter of seconds. Cyanoacrylate glues can also be used for gluing metal, wood and ceramic to glass because they can withstand moisture as well as high temperatures. If you have a big project to complete you may want to consider using epoxy glues or silicone for a more durable hold and faster drying.
Before applying any type of glue to a broken window it is important to prepare the surface. You will want to remove all debris and make sure both surfaces are clean and dry. It's also a good idea to roughen the surface particularly if it's very smooth. A gentle sanding provides the adhesive a bigger surface area to adhere to, resulting in stronger bonds.
When you're ready for the actual repairs, it's important to choose a high-quality glue that has been specifically designed for glass. This will ensure that the glue is safe to use and won't leave any unpleasant marks or marks. If you can, select a clear adhesive that will be clear once it has dried. Avoid glues that expand while they dry, because they can exacerbate the problem of cracked glass.
It is also important to consider how the glass will be employed. If it will be kept in a closed space and not be subjected to much stress, then a standard super glue can be used. If, however, the glass is going to be a part of the windshield it's best to choose an adhesive that is weatherproof.
Super glues are able to cure in a variety of ways. It is important to read the directions carefully since some require accelerators made of chemicals in order to speed up the drying process. It's recommended to work in a well-ventilated area and open all windows to increase the flow of air, which will allow the glue to dry more quickly. You can also utilize a fan to improve the air flow around your work area. This will aid it to dry faster.
Glass Repair Film
Glass repair film can be a practical and cost-effective way to protect windows from damage while they are being repaired or replaced by a professional. It's easy and quick to install and can be done by anyone, not only skilled tradesmen. It is a lot less expensive than a traditional window repairs board and can keep the heat out and rain out. It also gives the appearance of a window with a glass coating and is perfect for schools, hospitals glasshouses, offices, shops and factories.
When a window is cracked, the sharp shards left behind can cause severe injuries, and even death. Safety window films are constructed with a strong adhesive to make broken glass less dangerous. They also keep the shards within the film. The film is transparent so light can still pass through the window and it's less unsightly than a boarding up particularly in businesses that rely on the presence of customers at their premises.
The film is easily cut with a knife or scissors. It has an easy-to-peel backing that has a grid printed on it to assist in cutting. It can be applied on the opposite side of a window. If the surface is uneven the film can be overlapping 10cm to add extra security.
There are a variety of different kinds of safety film available in accordance with the nature and severity of the damage. Amber safety films are recommended for bullseye and other breaks that have small cracks. Gray safety films should be used for star break. The films must be applied to clean glass that is moist and it is recommended to employ a squeegee made of polyethylene using a soap solution to apply the film. Once the film has stuck to the glass it is best to allow it to cure for a couple of days.

Eastman Films has years of experience in manufacturing safety and security window films. The film is supplied in 15 metre long x 914mm wide rolls and comes complete with a backing sheet and release liner.
Paint
It is important to paint your windows thoroughly. This will make the new coat of paint look attractive and will also let it adhere properly. Be sure to wash the windows and scrape away any loose paint or wood. Take out any hardware, like handles and latches. You will also want to sand down the surface that you intend to paint. This will give you an area that is smooth so that the primer and paint will join.
It is important to protect the surrounding areas of the window by covering them with plastic and painters tape. This will prevent paint from getting onto areas that aren't supposed to be painted. I like to use green frog tape to do this because it creates a crisp line and is easy to remove when the time arrives. Painters tape is a great idea for any edges that are located near the walls.
After the window has been secured, you can begin painting. It is recommended to apply several coats of primer, letting each one dry before moving on to the next. After priming the area you can lightly sand the entire surface with fine-grit sandpaper. This will help make the surface smooth for the next coat of paint and will also help to remove dust that has accumulated.
If you are using acrylic or oil base paints and primers then you must wait for them to completely dry before you can begin painting. This could take up to a day, depending on the brand that you are using.
It's time to begin painting after the primer and paint have dried. Paint the rails (horizontals first) prior to the stiles (verticals). This will stop drips of paint from reaching the glass. Also, ensure that you keep a moist cloth on hand to wipe off any drips of paint as soon they happen.
