If it's a real stubborn bastard try using Nail varnish remover (acetone) on a cotton wool ball, but keep it away from paintwork and especially plastics!!

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

7 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

Ronsonol lighter fuel works a treat as it breaks down the sticky glue easily. >> Edited by Roadrunner on Saturday 1st June 14:14

POST 3Original post

Use a razor blade or stanley knife blade with your fingers (wear gloves or it hurts your fingers). Use it like a miniature paint scraper and it will quickly remove the lot very easily. Only suitable on glass as it would make a funny mess of a plastic window - then so would any solvent !

POST 4Original post

Cellulose thinners, Butanone, and all the other powerful stuff only needs one drip on the surrounding paintwork to knacker the car. Fairly mild - Surgical Spirit (any chemist), or better still: Meths - rub some on and drink the rest

POST 5Original post

Just to echo McNab's idea Meths will probably do the best job with minimal risk to paintwork (Vodka will also do, but even milder and slightly less damaging to you when you drink the remainder ) If it's a real stubborn bastard try using Nail varnish remover (acetone) on a cotton wool ball, but keep it away from paintwork and especially plastics!!
