Default Sticky Sticker Crap

I just bought a used car and on the rear window it has one of those college stickers ya no (University of Whatever) I want to get that off. Do any of yous no of any "home remedies" for the stuff that is still there after the sticker comes off? U no that leftover crap. I heard something but using rubbing alcohol or nail polish remover, ne truth behind those?

id highly suggest against nail polish remover because that is almost the same as paint thinner/remover, there are special products to take off sticky stuff, cant think of the name of them but i believe its like goop-off or something of that nature, u can always just use dish liquid and plenty of elbow grease that would be the way i would do it, the simplest way i would know.

There's this stuff called "Orange Solvent" that is made specifically for this. It works great. I don't know exectly what company manufactures it, but if you go to stores like Save-On, Home Depot, or any place they would sell cleaners, you should find it. All you have to do is put it on a paper towel, wipe the sticky part, and it comes right off. Then clean the solvent residue with water, then windex. Hello shiny clear window.

Is it on the inside or outside? Have fun getting it off if the sticker is on the inside.
