    Some graphics from a plastic bag got transferred to my windshield. kinda like iron-on-transfer sa t-shirt. mga bond paper size siguro.
    how do i remove this? i was thinking blade and warm soap, kaya ba to? or do I really need professional help?

    i was kinda pissed when I saw it but found humor in the fact na snow flakes sya and that'll help me think cool in this summer heat. but still.... arggghhh!

    with blade or paleta of course

    1. goo gone remover, pag ayaw,
    2. gasoline, pag ayaw pa rin,
    3. stripsoll paint stripper, kung talagang ayaw

    pag ayaw talaga, novus windshield polishing. or glass detailing kay big berts.

    Stay away from rubbing compounds.

    rubbing compounds have silica or other abrasives but the best abrasives for glass in cerium oxide na bihira meron dito sa pinas. si novus lang ang may ganun na alam ko. rubbing compound was made for painted metal, not glass. And a glass polishing compound is hard to find here. Of course you'd tell me walang scratches the first time you use rubbing compound on glass but ganyan ginawa ko sa akin. lumala lang in the end. Even yung painter's paleta and blade cutter nakakagasgas din if you slip. HTH. )

    Ooohh!!! I didn't know that! Kse I always use rubbing compund to get the watermarks off the glass. So is it bad? Will it damage or hurt the glass?

    Damage or hurt the glass? Not really, gasgas lang na dumadami in the long run. Glare will be pronounced eventually.

    If you need to remove watermarks off glass surfaces, use glaco glass compound. Vivid Auto Garage, 373-6991.
