ohsolow Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 I typically use Carquest Brand Heavy duty Glass Cleaner With ammonia. It comes in an aerosol can. The ammonia is what I have found is important. I use a razor blade on the side glass. Just spray it on let it set for a minute or two, then start scraping make sure the glass stays wet. Just be careful not to scratch the glass. On the back glass it just plain sucks, paper towel and glass cleaner with a lot of elbow grease and time.

Doc1647545523 Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 I think we used either Goof Off or 3M Adhesive remover on the 337, along with a razor blade. I don't know whether heating the surface with a hairdryer is of any help--we didn't try it since the razor blade got it all off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest GMoney Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 brake cleaner works great no need for a razor blade, spray it on a rag, just don't get it on any interior parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc1647545523 Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 Doc' date='is that Wilford Brimley im your avatar?[/quote'] I actually am Wilford Brimley. BTW, I didn't like the Remix. It was disrespectful. You shouldn't mess with survivalists, you know. Unless you're a zombie. And then, it's your job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evan9381 Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 ive got a stuff a buddy of mine gave me...its adhesive label remover. he worked for a porsche/audi/landrover dealership, and used it for removing all the tape and shit they put to protect the cars during transport. on my old car, there was a vinyl tape around the windows (over the paint...dumb), i tore it off, a shitload of residue, and when i put some of that on it, 3-4 wipes with a rag and it was gone. i dont know if i still have it, but if i do and you want to stop over and use some, im in blacklick. ill post once i get home and check for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1fynz Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 Pretty much covered. Ammonia, or ammonia based cleaner, and a razor blade. If you go to a tint shop, you may be able to buy a plastic razor blade which can be used on the rear windows without cutting the defrost lines. For anyone looking to take tint off, spray the tint with ammonia, or a cleaner, and use the moisture to stick a black trash bag to the tint, park it in the sun for 15min, and the adhesive, or most of it should come off with the film as you pull it off.

SpaceGhost Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 I used pure ammonia you buy at the grocery store and a credit card. Works perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
