    Super thorough, love the simple steps though. Lot of people talk about applying heat, wrapping the razor blade with tape for the hold, using isopropyl alcohol to finish off with, etc.... Your job was perfect and you just used glass cleaner, lint free wiper, and a razor as-is. 💯

    Am I the only one that never has a problem with a simple glass scraper? I just replaced my sticker. it's sunny that maybe helped but I scraped it right off very little residue. It was a NY sticker. I didn't even have to wipe it off with googone or anything. Just scraped off the little residue with the same glass scraper. I spent more time pressing the new sticker onto the glass than removing the old sticker

    • @glassdotcom
      @glassdotcom  Před 2 lety +1

      Depending on the location of the mounting plates, try soaking the base with an adhesive remover, such as Goo Gone, first. Do it several times over several hours. This should dissolve/soften some of the adhesive to make removal easier. Just be sure to contain the adhesive remover so it doesn't spill onto anything else.

    • @glassdotcom
      @glassdotcom  Před 7 měsíci

      Yes, you'll just want to make sure it's an amonia-free formula. Foaming glass cleaner helps the cleaner stay in place when sprayed onto the glass. Normal glass cleaner is more likely to run.

    You know, this is all well and good, but let's talk about registration stickers in states like NY, for example, where the reg sticker is all the way at the bottom of the windshield, where it meets the top of the dashboard and is on the driver's side so that the steering wheel offers further impediment. Contorting oneself enough to reach that area is problem enough.

    • @danburgess1514
