I think that the layer you place needs to be very thin to work. thick layers will liley cause parts to warp because you are relying on the adhesion material for strength and it is flexible. very thin layers with excess wiped off likely have very little elastic properties and all the properties of material bonded to which is glass.
I've had better luck wiping acrylic on with paper towels and wiping excess off rather than letting it evaporate. I started making abs juice as well to try. that does not need to be wiped on thin. it works when on thick as well.

Would acid etching the glass substrate be an improvement,
and has this been talked about before?
If the plastic does adhere well, it might be very difficult to remove.
I would think that would help prevent the edges from lifting, or warping.
One problem comes to mind, if the plastic grips the glass tenaciously it
might encourage spalling due to the object shrinking.

I would not be surprised if some paper towels have small amounts of surfactants applied to speed wetting and water absorption. These may interfere with adhesion. I have not had much luck with cleaning alone using paper towels either and it could be the brand I use.
But I'm very happy with glue stick so haven't had reason to investigate more.
