Autoglym (or equivelant) Tar and glue remover. You can buy it in Halfords.

Its a s**t of a job to do mind you. Takes ages to get it off, but it will eventually.

I'm dreading doing this.

I found this link: http://www.tintdude.com/remove.html

Might be of use to you. Apparently a steamer dose the trick.

Autoglym tar remover and a hair dryer to warm the residue should do the trick

use solvent cleaner, this can be found in most diy shops orupvc window stores.
i had the same problem its horrible stuff. solvent cleaner gets it straight off

is solvent cleaner basically like white sprit?

soften with intensive tar remover or a spirit then scrape off with a blade. took me about 20mins to do the front windows of a transit.

White spirit is like a pound a litre so it's worth a go if you can't get your hands on solvent cleaner straight away!
