Has anyone used Goo Be Gone to remove old adhesive from stickers on the plastic windshield?

Personally, I prefer a naphtha like Zippo or Ronsonol lighter fluid... a couple of drops on a paper towel usually does the trick.

Use a cloth and not a paper towel on a windshield. It doesn't take much to scratch the plastic. I learned this the hard way.

WD-40 works like a charm. 100% safe.

I'd be careful with Goo Be Gone and make sure it doesn't have an adverse reaction on the plastic.............I've seen some solvents like that eat right into plastic.
