: . I've never removed glass

: I've used a heat gun in one hand and a putty knife in the other. A
: long handled knife is better. A heat resistant glove also helps.
: You'll be aiming the heat gun at the same spot that you're
: trying to grip to lift the old glass, and without the putty
: knife and/or glove, it is easy to get burned.

: The temperature difference between the glass not coming off without
: taking slivers of wood, and being hot enough to scortch the
: glass is fairly small. Keep the heat gun moving and don't rush.

Thanks, that gives me a good sense of how to do it. My problem is I would like to remove the fiberglass tape from the sheer line without removing or disturbing the glass underneath. I don't want to go down to the wood. Do you think that's possible with this method if I'm careful?
