When building a stained glass window with No Days Glaze using the Quick Cure Method of construction, a standard heat gun is used to heat set the glazing material. You build the window (adjusting the pattern for the width of No Days Glaze, if using the pre-formed glazing strips), solder the joints, remove the flux, heat set the window, and when it cools and sets, the stained glass window is ready for installation.

-Cleaning the stained glass window
No Days Glaze was developed to cut out the putty or cement part of building a leaded glass window. So, instead of soldering together your window and carefully turning it over to solder the other side, then putty or cement; you put the No Days Glaze in the lead or edge came before building (there is also pre-glazed lead and edge came). After heat setting the glaze, it strengthens the window and eliminates the need to putty/cement.
