    Ok, I am a newbie to this but not to doing craft work. I am very proficient with wood, ceramics, metal work, etc but this is my first time at bat with guilding. I am going to follow your instructions to a tee and though I know I may screw up a couple of times, I find this to be extremely cool and eventually a winner for our small business. I am going through all of your videos and soaking up what I can before I proceed. The only issue I have encountered is getting the Pearl Glue here in the states. I found it on the Atlas Preservation website but it too is in Britain. We do have something here call Titebond Hide Away glue but it says nothing regarding usage on glass. I am still looking for the Pearl Glue here and hopefully I can find it somewhere.

They turned out very well for my first 2 runs out of the gate. So now I am doing a sign for my wife's business and this one I created using Inkscape. That was bit of a learning curve. Anyway, the first piece is being etched and scored now. This one will show my skills with gradient effects and using multiple colors. It may not be as deeply detailed as yours are but I am having a great time doing this. It is fun and ever so relaxing. It appears that I can do more than I knew I could.

    Thank you for your tutorial I've learnt alot from watching. We've started chipping and have had some great results, however our last two tries have been monumental failures with the glue literally just peeling off in a sheet. Not too sure why? One question that I have, after sandblasting do you clean the glass before applying the glue, if so how or with what do you clean? I'd really appreciate your input.

    • @happygilder
      @happygilder  Год назад +1

      Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it! The problems you’re encountering could be a few things. Firstly the glass. It needs to be float (plate) glass. If you’re trying it on toughened glass it won’t work because the glass is stronger than the glue.
      Secondly; it could be the temperature of the glue. If you under heat it, it won’t grip to the glass, and if you over heat it, it will mess up the glue. Anywhere between 40 - 60 degrees Celsius is good.
      Thirdly it could be the glue you’re using . I’ve experimented with a few types and now will only use Liberon Pearl glue. It’s given me great results every time .
      I hope that helps! :D

      Thank you! The glass must be sandblasted for the glue to work. As it shrinks it grips the etched glass and creates the patterns. If you don't have a sandblaster you can get a half decent chip using a rotary tool. I made a video about this process: ruclips.net/video/jMZuSIynl94/видео.html

    First off, thank you for this series. I've always wanted to know how to do this but information is hard to find online. Secondly, I have a question if that's alright. I've been attempting and failing this with hide glue on 12x16 2.5mm glass. I've tried the same design twice and both times the glass cracked almost clean in half but it did if after most of the glue had already chipped off. The glue does go to the edge of the piece but the middle section doesn't have any glue on it at all. Is my glass too thin to do this? Am I adding too much heat (I have it sitting on a reptile heating pad that goes up to about 90 degrees farenheit)? Do i need to add relief cuts? Should I pour the glue and only chip a small section at a time if I want the edges chipped? I'd appreciate any advice. It's getting a little depressing spending days on the project just to find out it cracked again. Anyway, thanks again for the videos and for spreading the knowledge.

      Hi Jenna, that's really annoying when that happens. I've only ever broken 1 project but it broke on my first 3 attempts and I nearly gave up.
      I imagine your glass is breaking because it's too thin and is cracking under the pressure of the glue. I wouldn't glue chip anything below 4mm thick. Sorry I should have mentioned that in my video.
      I hope that helps. Good luck with it, and let me know how you get on with thicker glass :)

    i wonder if you could get away with using one of those "shoe" racks in the dryer(it's a stationary rack so they don't bang around inside) and placing it on that and setting the dryer to low heat, would also contain all of the glass shards and you could simply vacuum it out after. if you're worried about getting bits of glass all over while it's drying would it be possible to just hang up a sheet or a blanket to keep everything contained so there was an easier cleanup? i've always wondered how they made some of those effects on glass! quite a few years back my father got access to clean out an old Woolworths store that had closed down quite a number of years prior and one of the things we salvaged was the old glass door sign that hung above the entrance that you could see from the street with the red paint and 2 tone gold guilding, it's about 10" high and roughly 5 feet long, for his birthday the one year we have a local sign painter(one of my mom's friends) who we had touch up some of the chipped paint around the edges, he did an exceptional job matching the original paint and also mentioned that the guilding was high end! he still has it wrapped up in cardboard and tucked away for safe keeping though i want to make a frame for it!

    • @happygilder
      @happygilder  3 года назад +1

      The Woolies sign sounds amazing, I'd love to see it if you have pictures. My Mum's first job was at Woolies so I think she'd be interested in seeing it too!
      The bed sheet is a great idea, I'll definitely be using that :)
      Regarding the drying process, I don't actually put it inside the trolley because it's too hot. I just lay it on the top so it's in contact with the surface, and the heat coming through is about right to get the chipping done.
      Thanks!!

    • @happygilder

      Hi Albert, there is a gold version of the Rust Oleum mirror effect spray paint, but I've never used it so I don't know if it works the same as the silver. If you're backing up glue chipped glass, I recommend using spray paint rather than enamel, because there are loads of tiny nooks that you can't see and enamel paint will run into them and spoil the piece

      Hi, the laser will etch the back of the mirror but it's a different type of etch than sandblasting. The glue chipping doesn't work on laser etched glass, and the reverse painting is severely dull compared to painting sandblasted glass :)
