How do I remove double-faced tape from glass?
+7
I had visitors whose baby needed "complete" darkness to sleep. I covered two windows with foil and used LOTS of double-faced scotch tape. Worked great but...
Naturally, I can't get it off. I tried WD-40. It works okay but makes an oily mess. Does anyone have a simpler suggestion?

You could try a single edge razor. If it takes paint and junk off windows, it may do the trick.
razer blade in a scraper holder...used them to get paint off glass and tape as well
rubbing alcohol
there are razor blade scrapers.. they will peel tape from glass.
GooGone! I discovered that recently and it's GREAT! Wear gloves though! It removed my nail polish!
I would spray with Pam cooking spray and use a paint scraper or single edge razor blade, and keep a paper towel pad on the sill to wipe off the goo as you go. Then just clean with Windex.
Use a straight razor flat against the window between the window and the tape.
try a razor blade that goes in a box knife. Take it slow once you are under the edge. Run the blade under as you go along.
Scrape it off with a single edged razor blade.
Thanks for all the great ideas!
