Re: [Phys-l] glass



Yes, that's how I do it. My "complaint" was the ukase like pronouncement.

bc

p.s. a photographer of fish using flash ruined an expensive tank w/ a razor blade cleaning algae.

p.s. I should advise him to attempt a methacrylate repair.

The trick to using a razor blade is to keep the angle between the glass and the blade rather small. I have scraped miles of labels from glass using this technique without ever a scratch. Slide the blade sideways a bit while pushing it. Most glass is pretty hard even compared to a blade.
