HOW WE RESTORE DOUBLE-HUNG WINDOWS

>     1     2     3     4     5     6     7    
 
 
 

We use a hand scraper to remove paint from the interior face of the parting bead as well as the interior-facing side of the blind stop.

Note: we discourage the use of power sanders when dealing with lead-containing paint as they produce large quantities of dust.

 
     
 
We lower the upper sash in preparation for removal.
   
     
 

  Once the upper sash is lowered we remove the parting bead.

 
     
  Starting at the top it is pulled out of its groove . . .

 
     
 

  and then pulled out in an upward direction .
