Help! removing old decals from windows!

[nONIE]

Just getting settled in our new pre-owned home and loving it but......

Someones idea of decorating was putting decals of birds all over the kitchen window. :yikes:
Im not at all a fussy person but this is just to tacky for even me to live with(and I love pink flamingos in the front lawn). So, how can I get these unwanted decorations off????

Any help would be appreciated, REALLY REALLY appreciated! Thanks

Nonie, have you ever heard of Goo Be Gone? Sold in some hardware stores, but I use it a lot and it seems to work well. All depends on the type of glue they used.

If you can't find it, I'll send you my bottle from Los Angeles...

Your tacky friend, Kathie :redface:

That's the name Barb. I suddenly couldn't remember it - Goo Gone.... Thanks, I would've been up all night thinking about it.

Barb, English & Kathie,

Thankyou so much! I will try them all! :bigthumbsup:

Razor blade scraper is the best remedy

Sometimes a hair dryer will warm up the glue enough to just lift or scrape off.

Mayonnaise

Hammer works quite well. But in case you don't have one I always used a hair dryer then WD-40. Had to remove military stickers from vehicles often and always used this.

Never dreamed I would gather up so many great solutions to my decal problem. I thought it was a very silly question actually. Just shows to go ya,, what great helpful people are in TV land. Thanks again everyone! :bigthumbsup:

I need something to remove ice from my windows --- I know the hair dyer will work but I don't have an extension cord that long so should I try mayo or ketchup?

[chuckinca]

warm mayo

[nONIE]

The tacky decals are GONE!!! But Im not gonna tell you which suggestion worked because I dont want to hurt anyones feelings. Im just going to file away all these great solutions to the problem and say thanks to you all. THERE GONE YAAAAAAA!!! :bigthumbsup:

[nONIE]

Bernie,

Listen to Barb, shes a very smart lady!

[chuckinca]

WD-40 is a chemical that may be harmful to the environment. On the other hand, Mayo (not Miracle Whip mind you) will not endanger living things and is SPCA approved!

Nonie,
You should tell us what you used. With Aaron around we need all the help we can get! You wont hurt anyone's feelings.
