Ok its 80 out and I gave up a boat ride on the neigbors vessel with two other neighbors as well I own a project boat 
I got the front cabin windows all stripped sanded,painted and new plexi went in yesterday, the "po
" painted the frames while on the boat and yes went right over the screws. I tried to soak them for a few days in paint thinner but didnt touch it , then I went to buy new screws welll did I tell you I was CHEAP? thats close to 60 screws for two windows, so I had an idea, I placed all the scews in my lyman turbo tubler. the tumbler is what I used when reloading bullets it cleans and polishes the brass before you resize,fill ect, well a few hours in there with walnut mix and they came out all clean and shiny 
, in any case I can now take the front windows off the list , only 101 more items to address.
