Rear quarter window removal

[kmac33]

I need some assistance from anyone that has removed the rear quarter windows from the top frame. I removed my top frame to have it blasted and powder coated. It looks like the quarter windows are "glued" into place. I can't get them out. Even tried heating the frame with a torch to loosen the adhesive and they wouldn't budge.
What is the secret to getting these things out?
Thanks,
Kevin

Patience and persistance
Keep slicing into the 'rubber' seal with a very sharp knife blade, removing small sections of the seal as they become loose.
The old method of fixing the glass in position was with strips of rubbery material that were soaked in kerosene (parafin) to make them soft and pliable. When wrapped around the glass and pushed into place in the frame, they dried out, sealed up and were set for life . I managed to replace mine using the same process and material from an auto-glass supplier, but the more common way of doing it today is with a tube of polyurethane adhesive sealant (Bostic or Sikaflex brands are available Down Under). The same method is used for fixing the bottom of the wind-up door window glass into it's channel. I cheated here and used a Bostic adhesive sealant to replace the ones on my Coupe. It can be quite messy , but cleans up OK .
