removing sticky sticker residue from windows

Goo-Gone

 

Bug and Tar remover.

 

Eucalyptus oil. Magic stuff and it clears your sinuses.

 

Start with a razorblade to remove as much of the sticker as possible so there is less residue.

 

Medical Adhesive Remover.... Available at most medical supplies, doctors offices, and hospitals...

This stuff really gets it off easily. I have used it to remove the DNR stickers from boats that have been in place for over 10 years...

It is not expensive.

 

I have used Goo Gone for years and it works great; and it's widely available at hardware stores, drug stores, etc. But it's petroleum based, and like a lot of other commercial solvents, it has a pretty strong chemical smell. So that medical adhesive remover that Lesturner mentioned sounds great too (cheap, effective, odorless, non-allergic), as does the eucalytus oil Pat Sparks mentioned (fairly cheap, effective, smells good, clears sinuses).

 

Fingernail polish remover (with acetone) will do it too.

Lighter Fluid does the trick every time.

 

Goof-Off works great. I took off all of the stickers on my car using it. I would imagine nail polish remover would also work well. I would shy away from using anything sharp, such as razor blades and the like. You don't need them when using Goof-Off. The stickers come off with little effort.

 

Keep the lighter fluid and nail-polish remover away from your paint.

 

Starting fluid (ether)

 

I used "Invisible Glass" spray and a diaper. It came right off.
