Any suggestions on how to get it off?..tried a razor blade, window cleaner, laquer thinner, MEK wont touch it. How about OOO steel wool? 7093229-rearWindow019.jpg (58 downloads) 1966 Charger 383 4 speed (Black with Red interior) 1973 Cuda 340 4 speed (Lemontwist) 1972 Corvette

I bought a glass polishing kit from Eastwood and that did a great job. It is a silica powder that you mix with water and make a paste of. Kit also includes an attachement for your drill to work the paste with.

Any other tips. 1966 Charger 383 4 speed (Black with Red interior) 1973 Cuda 340 4 speed (Lemontwist) 1972 Corvette

When you used to be able to buy electric rear defrosters that stuck to the window, the instructions would recommend cleaning the window with this 1st. Try in a small area to see. No Stock
