Setting fire to glass

I was at my local glass merchants today to pick up some cut-to-size glass, and I witnessed something I've not seen before. One of the glass workers had a very large sheet of glass on the table, and he sprayed something on it and then set fire to it. The flames were quite high and covered the entire sheet of glass. It was quite a sight :shock: What was all this about, does anyone know (I'm just curious).

It was probably laminated glass. They cut both sheets of glass then use lighter fluid to melt the plastic.
