So, I've got my Hehr 1400 series push-out window almost all done (just waiting on some rivets to put the push handle keepers back on after re-screening) and I noticed that I have a pretty significant area on the bottom of the window frame (of all places) where the seal isn't flush to the glass. Upon further inspection, it appears my entire bottom portion of the window frame, the glass part (as opposed to the screen part) is bowed, causing the seal to just sort of float there. Obviously this is a huge problem, especially since it is on the bottom of the frame. I know the resounding answer is that the framed needs to be straightened (as opposed to putting some sort of goop in there). Any suggestions on how to go about that?

Do you have any pictures? I need to see the frame bow. You might have to remove the glass to straighten that part of the frame.
