Title: Finger prints
Post by: frankie on 07 Jul, 2019, 01:40:13 pm

I had a new double glazed window installed yesterday and there are finger prints on the glass.  I have tried using 3Bruja's window cleaning stuff and alcohol but neither work.  Don't think it is putty but a clear sticky substance.  Anyone have any ideas what I can use to remove them?

White spirit, or vinegar?

OK, I have both, Annie. Will give the white vinegar a go first.... :thumbsup:

may be glue based, try acetone or nail polish remover

Hopefully they are on the outside surface and not between the layers  :wink: :whistle:

I am so glad I did not see your post before I got rid of it all Drax.  That hadn't occurred to me....
The acetone got rid of it finally...
Thanks everyone :clap:
