The person who owned the car before me had some kind of carphone or something, which had an ariel on. They have removed the ariel, leaving a 2x2cm lump of glue. its like the sealent stuff you put round a bath, and is a twat to get off.

I thought maybe some kind of solvent might get it off, but wondered if anyone knew of a better way to get rid?

Cheers

I tried with a knife (that would struggle to cut butter) but got bored. i'll try with a razor blade or something.

Thinners would do the job too, use a stanley knife blade to get the residue off too

Its left streaks on the window. The rain lies funny, and its like an oily trail. would the nail varnish remover take that away?

I'll go over it with some glass polish after but want rid of the minging mark.
