  Rubbing alchohol works really well on sticky residue. If you removing a sticker try using a blowdryer on low over the sticker and then rubbing alchohol to get rid of the stickiness.

  Yes rubbing alcohol works well. Also you can scrape it off using razor blades specifically placed in inexpensive little holders made expressly for this purpose from any hardware store. This works well for stickers on windshields as well!

  WD-40 is ideal for removing the label and the gooey stuff. Then just go over it with something like windex to get the WD-40 off. Piece of cake!

  If the other suggestions do not work, I have had success with Goo Gone. You apply it to the label (or what is left of the label) and let it sit for a bit and then scrape it off. Some labels require more effort than others and it depends on how long they’ve been stuck to your windows, etc.

  Good luck.

  rubbing alcohol and goo gone works, you just need to soak the label first then be patient to scrub it.
  good luck.

  I was a firm believer in Goo Gone for most projects…but already installed windows it didn’t work at all. It just ran down… I was so mad that I thought razor blade….So I tried one last thing before that….Mr Clean Magic erasers works wonders…I have done 3 windows in the last 5 minutes.
