Help with Residual car tint glue

I had to remove my tint and now its leaving nasty transparent glue.

Any tip on cleaning them?

I use windex? I use goo gone (seems to remove the stickiness, but there is still glue tape that needs to use nails to remove, but it is such a big area it would take forever to use your nail to do it.

Get yourself some plastic scraper blades and a scraper.

Scrape as much as you can off.

Use acetone and a rag to take off the residue.

Paint thinner would work good, just be careful it doesn't drip onto the trim panel on your door. Wipe again with water when done.

Or brake clean might work too but not sure if you can buy those over the counter anymore.
