Title: Stained glass windows
Post by: Richard Shepherd on February 20, 2012, 07:53:29 pm

I have been asked by our local vicar if I could clean the stained glass windows in the church. They are very old and very dirty, has anyone any experience of cleaning these??

I clean stained glass windows regularly, water fed pole hooked up to outside tap seems to do the trick.
Stained glass windows, houses not churches mind)

I do a church once every two years or so in and out, and I have a few houses with old Victorian stained glass, as long as the putty is sound you will be ok, watch out for cracks they will leak
