How to Repair a Chipped Glass Coffee Table
Having a chipped or cracked glass coffee table can be incredibly frustrating. Fortunately, repairing the glass can often be done with a few straightforward steps and materials.
Materials Needed
- Glass adhesive
- Paint stirrer
- Drill with diamond bit
- Glass replacement
Instructions
- First, use your drill with the diamond bit to carve out the edges of the damaged glass. These edges need to be hollowed out so that the glass adhesive sealant can properly hold the new pane of glass in place.
- Using a clean paint stirrer, apply the glass adhesive to a thin layer around the outer surfaces of the damaged area and spread it out evenly. Do not apply too much adhesive.
- Carefully insert the new pane of glass into the opening and press down firmly onto the adhesive. Allow it sit for a few minutes before moving the coffee table.
- Finally, let the piece sit for at least 24 hours to ensure the adhesive is fully cured and secure.
By following these steps, you can repair a chipped or cracked glass coffee table in no time. Treat your coffee table with care and enjoy for years to come!
