I have a double-pane window, downstairs on one end of the family room. ?It's
not very visible, being under the rear deck. ?Someone recently shot a small
hole, probably with a BB gun, which penetrated the outer pane. ?I'm looking
for advice on how to seal that up. ? I googled around, but surprisingly not
a lot there. ?Lots of articles on repairing broken windows or holes in
screens, but not this. ?Could not find anything on Amazon or on the sites of
Lowes or Home Depot. ?Any suggestions?


Attach a syringe needle to a tube from a tank of argon. Stick it in the hole,
and turn on the argon to flush air and moisture from the window. Then seal the
hole with epoxy and/or clear tape.

Of course, I've never tried this.


gee i took my picture window assembly into pittsburgh window and door,
its about 4 by 5 feet and cost 80 bucks. they disassembed and
reassembled the frame. in by 8am out by 3pm

attemting to fix such a window by patching is a grand waste of time
and energy, besides wasting money
