remove 2k overspray from the windscreen. Discovered I'd made a bit of a mistake today when driving into the sun I couldn't see a thing.

Razor blade then compound.

I use a stanley knife blade to scrape it if I get a bit on glass and then a cloth with some panel wipe on, I suppose you could use thinners but don't touch the paintwork

oop's posted at the same time, oh well it all will work

if its fresh try a thinners rag

otherwise a brand new razor blade or extra fine steel wool...try the thinners rag first tho less chance of marking the glass

I once sprayed an Astra and cleaned screen with wire wool. About a week later, the panel under the screen was covered with rust spots. The bits of wire wool had embedded in the fresh paint. Took some flatting and polishing to get rid.

t cut. it wont scratch the screen and if u need scratches out of glass use jewelers rouge

Brand new Stanley knife blade in one of those scraper handles, or 000wire wool & wash Very well after.
The Stanley knife also removes grinding \mig spatter from glass shame it does not the fill pits as well

I put my Toyota Camry into a pro body shop (Well, I thought it was a pro body shop) a few years ago to have a bit of bodywork done and it was a few weeks later when I happened to get in the back and look through the glass in a back door that I found the idiots had sanded the glass with the DA. Too late to go back and complain they would just have said it wasn't them and it was ok when it left, I know what the people are like around here so I just have to live with it on my pride and joy
