Talking

Back when I was a teenager, a friend and myself completely stripped the paint off his pickup using paint stripper and a scrubber. It was messy but there wasn't a speck of paint on the truck after we were finished. Talk about using harsh abrasives!

Anyhow, I'd recommend a light stripper and fine steel wool. something like this: http://www.por15.com/stripper_solvent.html or a stripper at hardware stores or automotive stores will work too. If you try it, use with caution and don't let it get on the paint or you'll end up taking that off along with it!

Good Luck!

Wouldn't the body shop type clay get it off as well?

Just get some water or window cleaner, spray it on the window and scrape it off with a razor blade.
