The glass is harder than the steel blade, so its not too easy to scratch the glass with the blade.

1st of all,you're opening post says that "you" got varnish all over the glass.

But this post of yours says that the "painter" was very messy with it.

Well when I first posted I didnt bother mentioning anything about the painter that varnished them cant believe I let him near the doors:(

If all else fails, you can try automotive glue and tar remover...available from many motor factors, mind you, this is a strong solvent so use it only where you have good ventilation.

"Glass harder than a steel blade" LOL you have not got a clue. Why do people have to replace windows when a cleaner scratches the glass ????? What does glass normally get scratched with ???? A diamond lol if you do not know what you are talking about why not just keep your mouth shut ? You have totally misinformed the OP.

What you need to use is a "bohemian" or "single edge" blade, its the same thing just different names depending on where you buy this will not scratch the glass at all. PM me if you need more detailed advise.

You just exchanged the word (brittleness) with (hardness) not the same thing. Good lad.

I see the unsavory nature theory was not inaccurate

Nothing was exchanged. Brittleness is when fractures occur with little or no deformation. So hard substances can also be brittle.

Here read it yourself,

Hardness

And after that, another little tip. You should pick a more recent thread for the purpose of firing off your abuse. The post you quoted is a year old:pac:

Noel Kinsella

Is there a time limit on posts ? Also you never answered my question from the last post. Did you get a Guard to sign a form for you when evaded road tax for 5 months ?

It also seems you dont know the difference in "mild steel" which is what is on your chart or "stainless steel" "Hardened steel" which is used in blades, here read this its a free lesson.

Thanks. Always willing to learn since my immigration to here.

Although stainless steel is not really hardened, it just has an additive, to make it corrosion resistant. It is a bit harder to drill etc alright though.

You could try drilling through a piece of stainless, then a sheet of glass with a hss bit, and see how that goes. Hardened steel, carbide steel etc, are harder than glass alright. And no doubt some blades have that factor.

But none of that was the real reason you came in with your unsavoury manner, was it??
