<p>Did you 'cover the surface in rags' then soaked with the 3M
product? If not, then it's not an 'apples to apples' comparison.
Soaking rags, so the solvent doesn't evaporate before getting a
chance to work, is a good idea. I think a lot of solvents--the 3M
product included--would work better with this technique. What may
work even better would be to apply the solvent, then put 'saran'
wrap over it to prevent evaporation.<br>

<p>I do apologize for the link to the 3M aerosol; 3M comes in pint
cans but I posted the link to the aerosol because it was at
WalMart, which I felt might be a convenient place to buy it (I
only saw it on the shelf at auto parts stores). If you didn't use
the whole can keep it around; it does work well on a lot of glues;
esp. the 3M upholstery adhesive--aka 'yellow snot'--which is often
used on upholstery and seals. It also works well on Weldwood
'Landau' adhesive, which appears, and smells, very similar to the
yellow snot.<br>

The 3M stuff didn't touch it. $20 waste of money. </p>

<p>The winner was covering the surface in rags and soaking them
with kerosene for a half hour or so. I then sprayed
MarineClean on small areas at a time, scrubbed with rag and
paper towel and the crap slowly came off. Two hours later I am
about 98% done. </p>

<p><span>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. </span><br>

<p><span><br>
</span></p>
<p><span>I put GooGone on a spot about two hours ago and
that spot is still hard. </span></p>
<p><span><br>
</span></p>
<p><span>I am wondering if there is something that might
work better for what is most likely 40+ year old duct
tape adhesive? </span></p>

<p><span>I obviously can't use any sort of aggressive
mechanical removal since it is glass. </span></p>
