cello tape on window pane

by cesca » Fri Dec 09, 2022 6:23 pm

Hi, on my external window pane there some brown shiny cello (awful) tape. How can I remove it? It doesn't all come out just by pulling it. Thanks.

Hi cesca,
Use a razor blade scraper and then white spirit to dissolve and remaining adhesive.

Thanks! I see, I was told I would need a "razor blade" and thought of Gillette razor blades! Would something like the one on amazon be ok? (See the link, can't add picture). It's for the job in the picture. Thanks again for your help.

Hi cesca,
Do not use the one you have provided a link to, it may scratch the glass. Search for window scraper, they hold a replaceable backed razor blade.
