Hey All,
I have just peeled the stealer sticker of my tail gate window and it has left behind a right mess, looks even worse now!
What can I use to get all the residue off the glass without messing up the heating elements?
Cheers

Lynx deoderant (Not anti persp) will get it off with a rough cloth.

autoglym tar remover....and as it is designed for cars it is fairly safe! and i use a soft polishing cloth to remove the excess crap left over

if you have non of the above, try your normal car polish, some of those shift the sticker marks

WD40 or any spray lubricant will sort out the residue.

wd40 is a nightmare to use, its an oil and is a real pain to get shot of it without the rear screen always looking blurry.
If you have a Betterware catalog, get a spray called "sticky stuff remover" or Nail polish remover does the job as affective.
