Claim:
A method of making an insulated, impact resistant glass product from first and second sheets of glass, the first sheet of glass having an upper surface with a perimeter surface portion surrounding a central surface portion, the method comprising: applying a raised barrier to the perimeter surface portion to produce a dam of a predetermined height surrounding the central surface portion; dispensing a curable fluid material downwardly at a dispensing point located over the central surface portion and into contact with the central surface portion of the upper surface; spreading the curable fluid material radially outwardly from the dispensing point to entirely cover the central surface portion and extending further outwardly to cover the entire upper surface defined by the raised barrier; and after dispensing the curable fluid material, securing the second sheet of glass in spaced relation to the first sheet of glass leaving a gap between an opposing surface of the second sheet of glass and the curable fluid material.
