Quickest way to remove glue residue from window tint?
 

What's the quickest solution for removing glue stuck to your windows from
the previous owner's tinting job? Windex? Lemon? Alcohol? Soap and water
don't cut it...

Acetone is worth a shot. Under $5 for a can at places like Home Depot.

Don't get the acetone on any plastic or near anything with a paint finish,
though.

try that "oranj kleen" stuff. razor blades are good too provided it's
not on the rear window heater elements.

-------------------------

If you're saying some of the tint has left resedue on the glass, just
spray it with soapy water or Windex, and use a painter's razor blade to
clean it off. The windex keeps it from getting sticky. Adding solvents
to the mix just makes a mess. Stay away from defroster wires, of course.

Ask the guys who do artwork on store windows.
