Prepping for paint and windows

We removed all the windows so we could re-seal them and clean them.
The previous owner had caulked them shut and boarded them up in an effort to seal out the cold.
They were a mess and we thought it would be easier to clean if they were removed.

Here is some of what we are looking at:
 This window took about 4 hours to clean.
 I am not really sure why there is caulking around the window crank, but they were also all encased.
 We are trying to find new gaskets for the Jalousie window:
 I think we found a substitute, but it isn't the same so not sure if it will work as well.  Keeping our fingers crossed!
