Removing a bonded screen means cutting through the urethane holding it, and there are two ways to do it. A wire is passed through the bead and pulled from side to side. A knife is worked along the bead from inside or outside. Both cut the same material differently. Which method suits depends on access to the bead as much as on the tools available.
Wire type changes how it cuts and what it risks. Braided wire cuts aggressively and can mark the aperture if it wanders. Square wire cuts cleanly on its edges. Nylon at 50m does not scratch paint or trim, which is why it is used where the surround has to survive. Wire length also decides whether a full screen can be cut in one pass without rethreading.
Getting the wire through the bead is its own step. A T-handled starter at 330mm punches through so the wire can be threaded, and wire grip handles let both ends be pulled without cutting into the hands. Cutting wire is a consumable and is replaced rather than resharpened once it has been through a bead.
Handling the glass is the other half of the job and it is where damage happens. A single head suction gripper at 120kg holds the screen while it is lifted clear, and handling kits pair grippers so two people can lift together.
