Wearing eye protection, gently move the window's pane and then remove any remaining shards. Then, use a utility knife to remove the glazing compound and points that help to hold the glass in place. Keep an eye on the location of these components to ensure that they can be reinstalled later.
After the frame and sash are removed and the frame is removed, you can begin preparation to install the new glass. Be sure to check that the opening of the frame is the right size for the replacement window. Measure both sides of the opening, then subtract 1/8 inch from each measurement to allow space for expansion and contraction of the frame and glass. Then, you can purchase double glazing Maldon-strength glasses made to these exact measurements. It is also a good idea to purchase enough new glazier's points or clips to be placed every 6 inches around the window pane.

This will allow the paint to last longer and make your windows appear smooth and even.
If you're planning to repaint your glass windows, ensure that you have the appropriate tools nearby. You'll need either a brush or sponge as well as a painter's tamper as well as a ruler and toothpicks. It is recommended to have the brushes and paints you will be using on hand. Follow the manufacturer's instructions. Have patience because it could take some time for the paint to fully dry.
Also, ensure that the area you're working in is well ventilated if you're using solvent-based paint. This will decrease the risk of breathing in toxic chemicals and allow the paint to dry quicker. Also, make sure you wear a mask that is protective for any spray paints you use.
For older glass windows, it is necessary to prepare the surface prior to painting. Use soap and warm water to thoroughly clean the glass window. Then, use rubbing alcohol on any oil or grease residues that might hinder the paint's adhesion. Be sure that the windows are completely dried before you begin to paint them.
