you can use a razor to get the majority of it off. Be careful not to
scratch the glass.

after that, "Goo Gone" (or similar) works well. Any of those products will
work.

yeas, I was thinking of a razor blade. It would be so much easier if the
sticker was on the outside though (convex vs. concave shape of the
glass). I will be very careful

GooGone is a naphtha based solvent. You can find GooGone in most
hardware stores and even at Target / K-mart / Wall-mart type stores.
Look for a small (~8" tall) clear plastic bottle with a yellow liquid
inside.

Professionals use a scraper (fresh blade) and windex. The windex just
keeps the goop from sticking back onto the glass. It will clump into a
ball. Spray, scrape, spray, scrape.

Once you introduce solvents into the situation, you get a gooey mess
that leaves residue for a long time.

Soapy water in a sprayer would do the same thing as Windex.

you should not play any notes you have left over. -

use a razor bblade and butane liquid. just release the butane from the top to
bottom. it eats the sticky stuck and us windodex to wipe clean. been doing
that for 25 yrs with cars.

I've found wd-40 is effective also.
