Fine scratches are generally the result of poor cleaning practices. Using the wrong materials (such as paper towels or non-glass safe cleaners) can lead to minute scratches along the surface of your mirror or glass. Larger cracks are usually the result of trauma to the surface. Pets and children are common culprits, and they should be kept away from mirrors and other glass surfaces.
If concrete is free to contract without restraint, thermal cracking will not occur. However, there is always some internal and external restraint. One example of an external restraint is where concrete is cast onto a previously hardened base, or adjacent to similar elements, without the provision of an expansion joint. The internal restraint is the warm interior of the concrete, which will contract later as it cools. Depending on the temperature difference and the strain capacity of the concrete, differential thermal strains may cause the concrete to form early thermal contraction cracks.

All the facts from a mirror expert!","url":"https:\/\/www.artistry-in-glass.com\/what-is-a-beveled-mirror\/","articleBody":"Mirrors can be clean-cut, flat-polished, or pencil-polished but the most luxurious edgework is beveled. Many customers mistakenly use the term beveled to mean smoothed off but the term has a specific meaning in the glass business. So, what exactly is a beveled mirror?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA beveled mirror has a polished angled border, generally 1\" wide, that creates a light-diffracting edge adding elegance to both framed and unframed mirrors.\n\n\n\nThe bevel, that can be from 1\/2\" to 2\u201d wide, reduces the edge thickness of the mirror from \u00bc\u201d to \u215b\u201d. \n\n\n\nThis post will tell you all you need to known about beveled edged mirrors; their history, how they are made, how wide they are, where they should be used and how they are installed.\n\n\n\nHistory of bevels\n\n\n\nIn ancient times and up to the middle ages, mirrors were made of polished bronze or silver. Early in their history, the superstition arose that breaking a mirror would result in seven years of bad luck. Mirror making on a commercial scale began in the mid 16th century in Venice with the use of Cristallo glass backed with amalgam or mercury and beveling was done laboriously by hand. The angled edges were ground on stone or steel wheels and polishing was done using pumice on cork wheels and cerium oxide on felt wheels. This method is still used for making the glass bevels found in stained and beveled glass windows.\n\n\n\nPolishing an inside beveled edge by hand on a stone wheel\n\n\n\nThese days, beveling is done on large, expensive machines on which the mirror passes over diamond wheels of progressively finer grit to remove glass, finally being polished on cork or felt wheels at the end of the line. The process of polishing and beveling the edges of a glass panel is called \"edgework\" in the glass business and is priced as dollars per linear inch.\n\n\n\n\nhttps:\/\/youtu.be\/Q8qE3Qwo9B0\nProduction beveling machines lower the cost of straight-line bevels\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAre beveled mirrors expensive?\n\n\n\nBeveled mirrors cost more than flat mirrors but modern production methods have made them much more affordable - the slightly higher price is well worth paying for the extra stylish edgework. This is especially true for straight-line bevels because they are manufactured economically on automatic beveling machines. \n\n\n\nThe cost of straight-line bevels increases with the width of the beveled edge because wider bevels require the removal of more material. Economical \u00bc\u201d or \u00bd\u201d bevels are the least expensive: 1\u201d wide bevels are the standard width and 1 \u00be to 2\u201d wide bevels are top of the line items commanding premium pricing. See this handy pricing guide for Tucson beveled mirror costs and call 520-320-0104 to order from Artistry in Glass.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor an even more self-indulgent and luxurious look, it is possible to order mirrors with double or even triple beveled edges, although we think this is design overkill.\n\n\n\nOver-the-top beveling - not recommended by Artistry in Glass unless you reside in Beverley Hills.\n\n\n\n Artistry in Glass is an Amazon Associate - we earn from qualifying purchases. There is no cost to you.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCurved edge bevels\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCurved bevels cannot be made on automatic production machines - they need handwork and are therefore considerably more expensive than straight-line bevels. They used to be made by hand, using stone or steel wheels with pumice and felt wheels for the final polish. These days they are produced on \u201cshape-beveling\u201d machines which still require considerable manual input and skill. \n\n\n\n\nhttps:\/\/youtu.be\/UJ7VowgYaAo\nCurved bevels are more expensive to produce than straight line bevels\n\n\n\n The knowledgeable and sophisticated customer recognizes custom curved bevels as the ultimate in luxury.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAre beveled mirrors better quality?\n\n\n\nIt is important to understand that there is no difference in quality between beveled and flat mirrors. All mirrors start out flat and are then beveled for decorative effect. Beveling is done on \u00bc\" or sometimes 3\/16\u201d thick mirror with the slanting bevel thinning the glass down to an edge thickness of one-eighth of an inch.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAre beveled mirrors in style?\n\n\n\nYes, mirrors with wide beveled edges or curved beveled edges continue to be admired and are still fashionable whether framed or frameless - but avoid narrow bevels and stay away from beveled mirror strips.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe one exception to bevel popularity is the use of beveled mirror strips to frame large mirrors. In the 1980s and 1990s, 2\u201d or 3\u201d wide strips of mirror with \u00bd\u201d wide bevels were mass-produced and became available at attractive prices together with mitered corner bevels. \n\n\n\nAvoid the clich\u00e9 - beveled mirror strips (left) now appear old-fashioned!\n\n\n\nThese mirror strips are sold in 96\u201d, 120\u201d, and 144\u201d lengths and were cut to size and glued to the border of plain mirrors by glass companies as an easy way to create the look of beveled mirrors. We do not recommend using these beveled mirror strips. The key to successful design is to avoid the clich\u00e9 and these beveled borders were simply overdone creating a look that yells out the 1990s and is now extremely dated.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat bevel width is best on a mirror?\n\n\n\nChoose the widest bevel you can afford - wide bevels look more luxurious in contrast to cheap mirrors that are made with narrow (\u00bd\u201d wide) bevels.\n\n\n\nThe standard beveled edge is 1\u201d and looks fine but a 1 \u00be\u201d bevel looks better. \n\n\n\nIf you plan to frame the mirror, there is an important reason for choosing the widest bevel you can afford. This is because the \u201crabbet\u201d (that\u2019s the groove in the back of the frame) will hide part of the beveled edge.\n\n\n\nBeveled edge is partly hidden by the frame rabbet\n\n\n\nAlways choose an experienced picture framer if you plan to get your mirror framed. They will make sure to maximize the visible bevel and they also know how to avoid unsightly reflections of the inside of the frame. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBeveled mirrors - to frame or not? \n\n\n\nA beveled mirror looks elegant whether framed or unframed.\n\n\n\nThe frame has two functions: it is both a protective and decorative edging. It protects the beveled edge against damage and it is a stylistic transition between the mirror and the wall - allowing you to integrate the mirror with the interior design of your room. \n\n\n\nFrameless beveled mirrors are perfectly appropriate, especially for a clean, minimalist look, because the beveled edge serves as a kind of frame.\n\n\n\nHowever, the frame offers more design excitement - it gives the fashion-conscious designer the opportunity to coordinate the mirror with her interior decor: Venetian, Federal, Victorian Chippendale, Chinese and Baroque styles all benefit from the extra styling of beveled edges.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSome frames do not cry out for beveled mirrors so use your judgment and choose plain mirrors for these Nouveau, Arts & Crafts, Deco, Mexican, Rustic and Abstract styles if you would like to economize on beveling costs.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTucson customers: order your beveled mirror from Artistry in Glass then choose a reputable framer to get the best results with your mirror-framing project.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow to decorate a mirror using etching\n\n\n\nA mirror can be decorated by sandblasting or etching a design, logo, or artwork on the front or reverse sides. Because the beauty lies in the sandblasted design, it is not normally necessary to use beveled glass. The only exceptions are where we are duplicating an antique mirror of the type commonly found in Victorian pubs, bars, or restaurants. Here, beveling was an authentic component of these beautiful mirrors.\n\n\n\nMcKewan's Beer Sign on a Beveled Mirror\n\n\n\nSee our spectacular mirror of the Fire Department\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nhttps:\/\/youtu.be\/g5336Fwvp3Y\nThe beauty of mirror embellished with the proud red and gold logo of the Fire Department\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow to install a frameless beveled mirror?\n\n\n\nYour mirror can be attached directly to the wall using special glue called mirror-mastic, using adhesive metal hangers, decorative metal mirror clips, or French Cleats. Standoffs or wooden backing can be used to achieve a designer \"away from the wall\" look. \n\n\n\nAttach the mirror flush to the wall using adhesive or tape\n\n\n\nThe simplest method of attaching a mirror is to stick or glue it directly to the wall. You have to be careful because normal adhesives will damage the silvering on the back of the mirror. A special type of glue is required - called \"mirror mastic\" that comes in cans or in tubes for caulking guns. Another option for attachment without damaging the silvering is a special type of glazier's \"double-sided\" tape.\n\n\n\nMethods to glue mirror to the wall - mirror mastic (left) and double-sided tape (right)\n\n\n\nA number of precautions must be observed and care must be taken so consult a professional glazier if you are in any doubt. The wall (substrate) must be clean and free from grease\/oil so that the adhesive will stick. Tape is sufficient for small, light mirrors but mastic is better for large, heavy mirrors. With mastic, the mirror must be supported for at least 24 hours so that the adhesive sets up. For large mirrors (for example wall to ceiling) it is crucially important to use mechanical supports (channel or clips) in addition to mastic.\n\n\n\nAttach with adhesive metal hangers\n\n\n\nA variation on the adhesive method is the innovative \"Hang-it\" system from the Andscot company. These are aluminum plates with double-sided, very high bonding adhesive. These are carefully attached to the reverse of the mirror and then simply hung on a fastener (screw) in the wall.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAttach with mirror clips\n\n\n\nAlways use mechanical methods of support as well as adhesives because it is possible that the mastic or tape will eventually fail with dangerous or even life-threatening consequences. So, always use clips or other mechanical fasteners when installing mirrors. For the latest styles in mirror clips - read this post from the mirror experts at Artistry in Glass.\n\n\n\nBeveled mirror clips for installing a beveled mirror against the wall\n\n\n\nThese mirror clips come in various finishes and are perfectly adequate for mirror attachment - but purists will note that they break up the line of the beveled edge. Some modifications are available in the form of different shaped supports - such as the round, deco-style, clips shown below.\n\n\n\nRound mirror clips are available in polished chrome, brushed nickel & brass finishes\n\n\n\nThe deco style appeals to some homeowners' interior decor but still interrupts the elegance of the edge - so you may prefer one of several other options. \n\n\n\nAttach the mirror away from the wall\n\n\n\nAdditional drama and interest can be generated by \"floating\" the mirror away from the wall. This is done by attaching a board to the back of the mirror and using a french cleat or other methods to hang the mirror on the wall. \n\n\n\nPlywood or particleboard backing to \"float\" mirror away from wall\n\n\n\nAdd LEDs for dramatic lighting effects\n\n\n\nLED lights attached to the rear of the mirror shine through a sandblasted rectangle\n\n\n\nEven more dramatic effects can easily be achieved using LED lights. In this example, we sandblast a border through the silvering of the mirror to allow the lights to shine through.
