Laquer on windscreen

[VR6 Lee 0]

Bloke who sprayed my arches got some on my front windscreen, what is the best way of getting it off?

If you have a clay bar handy that should get most of it off. As it's on the windscreen, a bit of turps wouldn't hurt either mate.

Thinners (not sure if ok for rubber), White spirit, then correct glass cleaner to finish off

I hope it's not 2 pack lacquer, I can't see anything removing that!

2 pack lacquer??

chemical curing, 2 parts, one being the hardener, once it's gone off it's impervious to petrol, thinners etc etc...

I had similar with a respray on a MK3 VR6, I ended up using a scraper (the type that holds a Stanley knife blade) and it came off like ice on a frosty morning

You need to ensure that the windsceeen is spotlessly clean and you use a brand new quality blade if you are going to attempt this. Always best to try a small test area before going in big style!
