Hi Guys I need to clean up a shop front which is covered in sticky tape of all types pretty much all over. I cant really use a scraper on it as the window is coated in anti glare / shatter proof film so using the scraper will almost certainly scratch or worse still cut the shatter proof film. I have used sticky label removal spray with some success but its slow and not perfect, white spirit or terps is next on the agenda but I am not 100% sure if this will stain the film on the glass.

I use solvent graffitti remover, I even used it on really old crusty stickers.
give it a spray wait a few seconds then wipe with a cheap microfibre.

Cheers for that Matt, can you guess what my next question will be?
-
As its a solvent based cleaner would it affect the film on the window?
Answer; I am not sure about that.
I bought my cans from polarbrite. about £5 per can. thats for the aerosol,
I think you can buy the trigger spray bottles but I haven't used that.
