Q: Can smart glass be blacked out?

• <div><p>Yes, smart glass can be blacked out. Blackout smart glass allows homeowners to turn windows from transparent to blacked out instantaneously. </p></div>

Q: How do you make cut glass not sharp?

• <div><p>The easiest way for DIYers to smooth the edges of cut glass is to use sandpaper. Wearing protective gloves, gently sand the sharp edges smooth using low-grit sandpaper and working up to high-grit sandpaper. You can also use a multitool with a rotating sandpaper cylinder to make quicker work of the project.</p></div>

Q: What removes glass labels?

• <div><p>You can use hot, soapy water, white vinegar, rubbing alcohol, window cleaner, nail polish remover, WD-40, and cooking oil to remove glass labels. You can also apply heat with a hair dryer or steam cleaner. Use a plastic scraper or credit card to remove the adhesive, as a razor blade can permanently scratch your glass.</p></div>

Q: Can you recycle broken glass?

• <div><p>Broken glass cannot usually be recycled. Most recycling programs state that glass must be intact in the form of bottles or jars in order to be recycled. You may be able to recycle broken glass at a drop-off recycling facility&mdash;contact the facility to see if they accept broken glass.</p></div>

Q: How thick should glass be for soundproofing?

• <div><p>There is no blanket number when it comes to glass thickness for soundproofing. Thicker glass does help reduce noise, but it&rsquo;s only part of the solution. Most single-pane windows use glass that&rsquo;s ⅛&rdquo; to &frac14;&rdquo; thick. While increasing the thickness can cut down on sound, the real noise-blocking power comes from stacking layers. Double&mdash;and triple-pane windows are far more effective for soundproofing. The combination of mass and separation breaks up sound waves better than thick glass could on its own. </p></div>

"This was more than putting a new deck & pergola on. We had a glass sunroom that they removed as well. I was so impressed with the care they took to not break any of the glass. Then came the beautiful new deck! They explained everything that they would be doing & gave me wonderful choices of materials. They even helped me put in a permanent flag pole in my yard! I could not be happier with how easy Kyle, Dave & Chris were to work with, the quality of the materials and how absolutely gorgeous our new deck and pergola are. I highly recommend them."

"We replaced the windows in our 1933 home through the services of MadCity Windows. From the initial contact with their sales representative to final installation, the company provided top notch professional work. With the draft from the old windows and the cold of the glass, we are already saving on our energy bills. Our house had old, large windows, so they had to be custom made. As an industrial designer and interior designer, we find our windows to be of excellent quality."
