That's kind of what I was suggesting the other day. If you bed it in mastic,
it won't go anywhere even if it breaks. I think the tempering would be
redundant. The mastic will accomplish the same thing, at a much lower cost,
IMHO.

BTW, I used to work as a glass installer for Binswanger, so I have some
experience with this stuff.

After consulting with the glass dealer I am going to bed them in mirror
mastic on a 4 mm okoume so if it breaks most of the particles should stay
in
place.

Anyone have suggestions for mirrors? I need to set mirrors in the head
cabinet doors. Glass is just inherently dangerous on sailboats. I have been
experimenting with acrylic mirrors but they haze up very quickly. Plate
glass mirrors are way to heavy. Now I am thinking about a double strength
glass mirror and backing it with 4 mm meranti. Maybe bedding them in epoxy
or 4200 to hold pieces in place if it gets broken.

Any other ideas?

Self-adhesive plastic film over the front of the mirror,
eg 0% opaque car window film?
