Default Help me, paint overspray on the glass...

Anyone know of a way to get light paint overspray off of the windows? I think I saw a putty or something for that once, but I'm not sure. Anyone who has experience or knows, please chime in!

Try paint thinner.

Puddy? Do you mean claybar? That stuff works pretty good, but it's not made for windows.

Home depot sells this stuff called graffitti(?) off. It comes in a white plastic bottle. Water based and wont harm plastics or glass.

I used a claybar, and it worked great for light overspray on my friends windshield.

I actually tried the razor blade idea, it seemed to be making scratching sounds... Maybe I'll put a brand new blade in it and try again. I was going to buy a claybar eventually to do my paint, if the blade doesn't work... I'll try the bar. Thanks guys!
