BillyVance 35 #1 January 26, 2006 Hey, I'm trying to put the finishing touches on my newly renovated hall bathroom. About the only thing left is to make an oval mirror and hang it over the pedestal sink. My wife has the old wedding photo of her parents, who have since divorced, in an oval wooden frame. It has been in the attic for the past 5 years. I brought it down and cleaned it up, and took the old photo out. Now I want to paint the glass pane into a mirror. Is there a special paint for that??

I suppose I could have that done with the old rectangular mirror that was in the old bathroom. The glass pane from the frame is awful thin. So which do you think is cheaper? Painting the existing pane of glass, or having the existing mirror cut to fit?

Painting the existing pane of glass, or having the existing mirror cut to fit? Either painting it or putting a film (i.e. window tint) on the back would probably be cheaper, but I'd go with the mirror. Glass used in picture frames is very thin, while I don't see an issue using it as a mirror you'd get better results if you had the other one cut to fit.The only naturals in this sport shit thru feathers...

Get the existing mirror cut to fit. Thanks. There's a place just down the road that can do it.
