After the piece is bent, it is soldered into place and then the cement is used to hold it in place. Once the new cement has dried the crack can be polished, cleaned and sealed.
Another method of repairing cracks in leaded glass is to identify cracks, and then re-lead the piece of glass. This is a labor-intensive and expensive process, however it can be successful. The glass that has cracked is removed then cleaned and sanded to smooth the surface. The lead that was removed is removed by using a lead knife or pincers.

Muntins or Mullions
People who are familiar with windows might be familiar with the term "muntin." These vertical wood strips separate panes of windows in traditional multi-pane windows. They are commonly used to create an authentic look in historic homes and are often required by city ordinances for renovations or construction in historical areas. However, many new replacement windows employ muntins for aesthetics only instead of adding strength and stability to the sash. Muntins are still vulnerable to damage and may need to be replaced if rotten or broken.
The majority of window companies today don't distinguish between mullions and muntins because both serve the same purpose. These terms are often interchangeable however, if you're replacing your windows it is essential to understand the distinctions so that you and your contractor can discuss the specifics of the work.
A mullion is the single vertical prop that holds panes of glass together in a multi-pane arrangement. This was a necessity before the introduction of glass manufacturing technology since larger pieces were nearly impossible to manufacture. The frames of windows of today are made of two glass pieces that are glued together. However, some older types of windows have mullions in place to provide support, and they are frequently used to enhance the appearance of windows.
If your mullions are showing signs of aging they can be easily repaired them by applying a bead or two of silicone on both sides of the muntin. Then press it into the frame. If you're replacing a horizontal piece you might need to use a copingsaw remove the old muntin. Then, form the top of the new muntin with the help of a file. If you want to blend in, you can purchase an entirely new muntin that is slightly different from the original.
Some IGUs contain both muntins (real mullions) and muntins (replicas) that are built inside the unit to provide effect. If you are experiencing problems with these components, it's likely time to replace the window.
Frame

Use dry rags to clean it up. Pay special attention to the corners at the mitered joints. Use wood glue to re-glue them in the event that they've opened. You can also use vinegar to dissolve the old glue in these areas, however you might need to test it on one or two corners before putting it all over.
If the corners are loose and a problem you should disassemble the whole frame to reach them and then follow the steps 3 to 8 to address the issue. If the separation is only slightly on one side, it might be possible to let the joint open a bit by wriggling.
If the corners are utterly broken you'll need a small clamp, wood glue and needle-nosed pliers. If only the top or bottom corners have split it is common to hammer finishing nails (those are thin nails that are very similar to the size of the head) into the corner of the frame, to ensure that it stays in place once the glue is dry. Be careful not to put the nails too close to the corner, or you could weaken the frame. You can also strengthen the corner using carpenter's glue and a hammer, or wood putty.
