Meaning and boundaries
A silvered mirror differs from reflective or two-way coated glass, and its backing is not an exposed glass surface.
Why it matters in glass restoration
Moisture, chemicals, edge exposure, and incompatible adhesives can damage the reflective backing even when the glass face appears restorable.
