    Removing glue from windows?

    Hi,

    I`ve been trying to remove a window sticker. I`ve used some rubbing alcohol and most of the glue is gone. Now all that`s left is glue that seems to have been hardened and won`t come off. What`s a good way to remove it? I was going to use some nailpolish remover or goo gone, but I`m not sure if the car has some level of factory window coating/tint that might be damaged.

    SVTdude,
    Check with your dealer about the window coating first, just to be safe. Then try a scraper. They usually have straight edge razor on one end of them. That should make quick work of the glue. One of the cars that I detail goes racing every Sunday, they put a sticker on the window, and every Thursday I am scraping it off.
    I treat them all like they are my very own.

    Smile glue on windows...

    Here is what I do. Remove the excess glue with a fresh razor blade then follow with some steel wool and window cleaner.
