How do we glaze the toughened glass?
We have different kinds of glasses in our windows. Some of them are easy to manipulate and others are slightly more toughened. When we get our glasses toughened, we are often unaware of the fact they will require cleaning thoroughly after some period of time. While the light weighted glasses are easily cleansed, the toughened ones have to be cleaned by application of extra force and pressure.
Glazing is the process through which the glass is cleaned by the addition of ophthalmic lenses to the surface of the glass. The lenses are added and embedded within the surface by compressional force. London glazing involves the removing of glass from the window panes, removing of glass from the table stands and the removal of glass from the door stiles. The removed glass is then placed onto the rabbet which is a special instrument designed to hold all weights of the glass. Then the lens is added to the glass and it is made entirely new.
The toughened glass is slightly harder to clean as its surface it thick and addition of lens through mere heat and pressure is difficult. The London glaziers have a great option for making the hard and thick glass clean again. We propose using of bolts to embed the lens within the glass. The bolts are not used directly to put in the lenses rather the bolts are used to hold together the panes and exteriors of the glass properly so that the rabbet is on in use. A lot of pressure and heat is then applied to ensure that the lens is added to the toughened or laminated glass. Now if you feel that the glass still lacks that tinge of new glass, you can always ask our glaziers to add extra layers of lens into the glass. A double or triple layer of ophthalmic lens is going to ensure the transformation of glass into new.
