As long as it isn’t “surface tinted”, and it is glass, I’d use a razor blade type scraper…
Use a single edge razor scraper. You can find them at any hardware store.
use a heat gun and a flat 5 in 1 (used for mudding)… both can be picked up from an appliance store.
If it is on the glass, then a paint scraper or blade will suffice just scrape more horizontal to the glass. If it is on the painted surface, there are a number of products available at an auto parts store to assist you. Good luck, PS watch the angle on the glass just take your time.
If you are having problems scraping it with a flat razor blade because it is crumbling from oxidation, you can spray straight ammonia on the lettering. Let it sit a moment and then use the razor blade. It’ll come off much cleaner and in bigger chunks.
If it is adhesive based use a blow dryer to soften the glue and peal it off with your finger nails. The glue will usually clean off with rubbing alcohol or a wax and grease remover from your local auto parts store.
Of course a Razor blade and elbow greese. if I rember right as well Autozone had a product for removing tinting. If the lettering is stuck on thare go look for a bottle of that it helped when i took the tint off of my truck.
Just use a single edge razor blade, a new one. Also, it helps to spray the area where you scrap with something like Windex glass cleaner. Makes it easier to come off. The guy above me is talking about this stuff called “Goop”, and yes it really does work and it’s also cheap.
