    Great stuff Norwester, you must be buzzing with it actually in your possession!

    I too have some experience with glue in a HJ - good luck

    we use Kenco - Shift It to remove the old glue from window tint

    if it needs some help put plastic over it after you spray it on and it helps soften it

    if it's really bad try costic oven cleaner
