I can't find a thread about removing old stickers off windows, so I made one

Does anyone know how to safely remove old stickers that are all cracked, dry, and slimed onto the window? Also the security stickers on the inside which are not cracked?

I usually use a nice, new, sharp razorblade and a little bit of nail polish remover on a paper towel to get rid of the residue, though I'm sure someone else here has a better idea.

Problem with the razor blade is that you have to come at the sticker at a pretty steep angle and VERY CAREFULLY in order to avoid scratching the glass; though in my 15+ years of vehicle ownership I can proudly say that I have not had a casualty to date.

heat is your friend- a hair dryer will do
Some goo gone, mayonaise smeared on area, or wd40 will help to weaken the adhesive.
Some will get loose enough on an edge that you can snag it with a razor and peel off

check the Off Topic link above- then Wash and Wax section for many tips

About the razor blade to get them off


In my experience, you don't really have to go at a certain angle or really be that careful at all to not scratch the glass. Some Goo Gone/rubbing alcohol works good to get the extra sticky stuff off if the blade can't get it. Same thing goes for the stickers on the inside of the window, but you won't be able to do it if you have tint as the sticker will be under the tint.


Just use something like this out of the knife itself
