[Shop-talk] removing OLD duct tape adhesive from a windscreen

[Gordie Bird]

I’ve had better success with 3M old hard adhesive remover than googone, even comes in a spray can.
Bring a stool, you’ll be awhile.

Subject: [Shop-talk] removing OLD duct tape adhesive from a windscreen

Earlier this year we added a handful of Roadsters to our stock. On the one derelict that I am currnently salvaging, the PO completely coated the inside and outside of the windscreen in grey duct tape (would anyone have any idea why becasue I am frellling baffled by this one!). I removed the tape (well, the outer plasticy layer anyway) but all the adhesive stayed on the windscreen as a hard layer of fuckmehardintheasscusyouarescrewedandwillnevergetthisshitoff dreck. 

I put GooGone on a spot about two hours ago and that spot is still hard. 

I am wondering if there is something that might work better for what is most likely 40+ year old duct tape adhesive? 

I obviously can't use any sort of aggressive mechanical removal since it is glass. 

Help! 
Thanks
