I have some glass epoxied to aluminum. Standard 2-part epoxy, long-dry. It's been on there for a couple of weeks. Is there any way to separate glass from metal at this point?

Hi Cheryl
You can heat it gently with a heat gun or blow dryer and it will give way at about 250-300 degrees or you can soak it in acetone.

Or put in kiln
But the idea is 2 distroy the bond not set it on fire
