It's been over a week now. What happened? How did you remove the putty?

Vic


Muratic acid. I used a turkey baster to apply it where needed.

It worked. Nothing else would.

I would imagine the acid also etched the glass to some extent; not a
good thing.

You imagine incorrectly. Muriatic acid, ( weak HCL dilute 28% solution, in
most cases) is what is used in Toilet bowl cleaner, swimming pool acid and
various other common uses. It attacks the plaster and if Portland cement is
present,(as it is in Inland cement) the Portland also. It is used to clean
brick/ block and mortar after installation. It doesn't harm the glass.

Having said that, it will harm iridized glass sometimes, depends on
manufacturer and solution used, and it will definitely harm "fumed" glass
such as that made by bullseye.

No, actually it didn't etch the glass... what Java said.
