Default Help with cleaning glass

I took the tint off my hatch glass. I used carburator spray to get the sticky stuff off. It worked well, but now how do I get the carburator spray off the glass? I tried windex, alcohol. Do you have any ideas?

when i worked for numerous detail shops we used enamel reducer to get the sticky stuff off, then used window cleaner to get the streaks from the enamel reducer off, use enamel reducer its safe for your defogger strips just dont touch them, then use window cleaner, wipe with rag and then dry with microfiber to prevent streaks

Laquer thinner, won't hurt the dfrog strips either, and if u are worried about that use Goof Off from wallmart, lowes,... **** works really good on anything, another good use is gettin rubber off the Quarter panels form trips to the track. stuff dosent harm clearcoat at all, overspray too

Like said by zebrad, use enamel reducer. We used this on my friends car after removing the tint. Worked Great!! Goof Off's Goo Remover will also do wonders..
