glass painting?
recently had a decorative lead pannelled window fitted on our landing. Unfortunatley we did not see if before it was fitted and it did not meet our original specifications. we want to paint certain parts of the window to meet our original design and would welcome some advice on what sort of transparent glass paint we could use on this external window.

Surely if the window does not meet your specifications then you should just tell the suppliers to remove it and replace it with what you ordered? If you want to paint parts of the glass, then use a specialist oil-based glass paint (available at craft shops - Pebeo is a good brand) on the INSIDE of the window.

Do you know if the glass is fitted in the "Tiffany" way or using lead cames? With decorative glass made in the "Tiffany" way, individual pieces can be removed and changed by a skilled glass artist. We just had a piece in one of our kitchen cabinet doors replaced. It cost $35 but you can't tell it was not the original.

they make a special type of paint that looks like stained glass. Michael's has it here. I don't know if you have one where you live. the paint is squeezed out on the glass and spread with a toothpick. when it dries it looks just like stained glass. there is also a grey type that looks like the leading that goes between the colors.

Painting glass usually has a poor quality outcome. I would speak again to the fitters if you had specified what you required. If it is in panels and has individual pieces of glass you can get a skilled workman to replace these. Don't try to alter any of this yourself. If you damage the glass further you may have to replace the entire window.
