Fogged windows could be a sign that seals are loose. Small metal clips called glazing points (on wood) and spring clips on windows made of metal help to hold the glass in the right place. Warm the glue used to "bed" the glass by putting your heater near it until it begins to soften. Broken or cracked glass Glass that is cracked or broken is often the result of severe storms or lawnmowers' puddle that is thrown into the window, or even a vase of glass dropped by the cat. Small cracks in glass can be repaired without compromising its integrity or ability to seal out cold or heat or protect your home from weather-related conditions. Glass that has suffered more severe damage might need to be repaired or replaced by an expert. For superficial cracks, a thin strip of strong-hold tape could prevent the damage from becoming worse. For more serious cracks, like stress cracks caused by fluctuating temperatures, you'll have to extend the tape several inches over the crack on both sides. For a more permanent solution, there's glass repair film that is designed to keep the entire window in place and is cut to size. Before applying any repair product, ensure that the damaged glass is thoroughly cleaned to promote optimal adherence. Utilize a glass cleaner as well as a clean rag to clean any residues or oily spots on the glass's surface, as well as in the cracks. Acetone (the ingredient in nail polish remover), can be applied to a rag to break up stubborn dirt or oily spots. Once the glass has dried and is dry, it's time to prepare for the application of the repair substance. If you're using two-part epoxy, it's important to mix equal amounts of resin and hardener prior to applying the glue to get a well-balanced mixture. Use a putty blade to apply the glass
