Anyone have any tips for dealing with glasses that have large curled strips of art peeling off? Most of what I have found has suggested triple thick with saran wrap, pressing the art down into place against the glass after spraying it but these pieces are so large and brittle that they just break off if I touch them at all.

As a side note it seems that the glass had already been sprayed with triple thick or something similar. The areas with minor flaking are still locked in pretty good, there's just now these huge chunks coming off.

Quoted from zippydapinhead:

Might be a repro available.

Yeah, this was a super budget game though so I'm not really wanting to drop $200-$300 on a new glass.

So my question with the triple thick is how do you get the pieces to lay down in the right place instead of just breaking off when I touch them?

I also wonder, since the glass appears to have already been treated with triple-thick or something similar, if the severe curling is due to the original art, or whatever else had been sprayed on it?
