Title: window issue
Post by: jeynesey on 10 May 2010, 18:01
My misses bought a new car last year and ever since there has been an "imprint" from a dealer sticker on the windscreen, when it steams up. Its inside and no matter how much you clean the area it happens every time. Its quite big, maybe a 1/4 of the windscreen. As much as it racks her off its getting on my t1ts even more as Im the one who cleans it!!


Any ideas?  :angry:

If I was in your situation I would use wire wool (or brillo pad) . The residue from the adhesive is to blame...good luck

jeynesey I have the very same problem.

I tried everything and even had a thread in this section about it too.

I tried all sorts including vinegar and even Autosmart Tardis, G101 and nothing I have tried has taken it off, and as you say you only see it when it is condensated.

I've just got used to it now.
