	I peel off the film and then you can be left with the glue on the glass or sometimes it stays on the film or a bit of both, make sure you remove all the film and then spray it with glass cleaner, the glass cleaner helps the glue too soften, then with some fine wire wool start to rub it of the inside of the glass, not to hard or you can scratch the glass, the glue will cover the wire wool and at that point you need a new bit, carry on like this till it's all off or you have given up and gone for a cup of tea, what not to use ! any kind of spirit, petrol, meths, etc etc it will melt the glue and be an utter to get rid of. no safety blades on the back windows or your heating eliment will be fubar ! oh and on that be careful when removing the film as I have had even new windows heating eliment come off ! range rover and discoverys are bad for that, which can be expensive Rusty
