I am wondering what the best way of removing stickers on windows would be? I would like to remove my two stickers from my rear windshield but it's hard to even lift a corner!!! Is there any type of solution that would make it easier for this type of removal.

TIA,

five

A razorblade is the easiest way to do it. I have to remove stickers all the time and out of all the methods I've tried, the razor is the easiest. Then get some sort of adhesive remover to get rid of any leftover glue. If you do it right, there shouldn't be too much glue left.

Remove the adhesive with GoofOff

I watched the window installer when replacing windows in my house and he used Goof Off. It comes in a spray can and is available at any hardware or most larger drugstores (Target, etc).

I imagine that a heat gun or blow dryer might help too.

Use Goo Gone, if you get any Goof Off on plastic or the clearcoat, you will damage it.

goof off is the best for removing stickers by far
