Plastic stripping replacement and removing old glue

Quick Learner from Boynton Beach Florida

Our community has allowed us to remove the mullions on our windows. I have 3 of the same size windows and after I removed the mullions I realized the plastic strippings on all 3 windows will need to be replaced. Do you have the replacements? Do you have a how to video? Lastly any suggestions on how to get the glue or whatever is embedded in the windows off?

Here are some additional photos. As I mentioned, I have 3 windows that would need replacement strips. Also would you know of any product that would take the glue (or whatever that is) off the glass? I tried GooGone & it did not work.Thanks for any help you can give me.

Thank you

Greetings. Take a look at the 55-088 and the 55-204 glazing bead. See if either of these might fit your window sash. As for the glue on the window glass, try using a glass scraper like the 75-046. I find that scraping off the glue works best. You could also try using Lacquer thinner or an Acetone, but these chemicals are flammable so take care in using them.
