rapid remover with a razor does a good job... just make sure the razor is on a good angle to lift the residue, and not scratch the surface. Most vinyl shops have rapid remover on hand, I am sure they could help ya out.....

if the residue is on the inside DO NOT use a razor blade, youll remove the defrosting strips. Use lighter fluid, a soft rag and alot of elbow grease

heat up the residue with a hairdryer. apply goo gone and then wipe or use a razor blade.

I work at a sign shop...Rapid remover is excellent stuff. If you are worried about scratching the window with a razor blade, look into getting a "Lil Chizzler" Its made of plastic, so it wont scratch, but it works as well as a razor
