Great post! Press & Seal works well for painting projects as well. Seal edges down tightly, trim out and paint right over it. Does not bleed paint. Won't peel or mark fresh paint either.

Thanks for the kind words guys I did not expect this kind of a response, THANKS


As for finding a sheet of glass that should be the easy part. Auto glass shops often have decent sized scraps, window framers, even Home depot. I have a couple pieces I use and have not paid a cent for any of them. Just keep your eyes open. Save your money for razor blades !!!!
