I have some windows that have dried out glazing. I am renovating them and am not sure how to clean some of the glazing left on the windows (the glazing that squeezes out when I use a putty knife).

Hi Jeff,
I'm doing a bunch of windows in my place so I know where you're at.
I just let the putty skim over for a couple days then it's easier to remove the excess. As far as really cleaning the glass, I leave that until the paint is cured and then it's time for final cleanup.
