Message	What's the problem? Is the silvering tarnishing, or peeling? You can pop the glass out, strip the old silver and resilver it with a $63 kit. Youtube it for instructions. Mirror Refurbishing kit I've also seen a demonstration where someone used the silver spray paint for glass and it actually looked decent. Mirror Spray Paint There are youtube videos on how to do this. This is going to be the next project for me. The biggest PITA is going to be getting the glass out of the frame without breaking it. I'm thinking heat gun to warm the frame and make the glue let go.
