tried it needs a lot of spirit to make it safe to scrape and leaves a resdidue if you dont keep soaking it also  one window is over cons used scrim clip but hard to use scraper at range and do it safe and get good result any chemicals anyone can reccomend also not keen on using brushes on these windows after soaking them with spirit will they be okay to clean pole next time or will it contaminate brush??

Winzer wurth type 10 or 20 might shift it. personally the stuffs the dogs bits for frames but i have used it on glass before and leaves glass crystal clear.
