Material: Bruised glass...

After the coaming cured on my Cirrus (see "Alternative fabric" thread below) after a day and a half I attempted to pry this beauty of the deck to trim it.

As Vaclav recommends I used wedges around the perimeter to pry it out. However.... as I was prying I ended up stressing the glass in one section (1/4" x 2") along the coaming riser bend. This now appears as a white bruise on my very sexy blue coaming. Sigh.

Any suggest for treating bruised glass like this.

Best, Dave
