Thanks. I think that I will try the fingernail method first. The glue is
down where the windshield meets the glareshield so it would be difficult to
polish.

I managed to get some 1300L contact cement on the windshield of my Helio

if
I can use "adhesive remover" on an acrylic windshield without causing
crazing? Any other suggestions? Thanks!

Can you keep the area very wet for a long period of time? I'm
thinking covered with wet paper towels, and wait a while for the
adhesive to soften up so you can use your finger to pick it off.

If that won't work, I know either Sporty's or Spruce sells a
"Windshield Compounding" kit. It comes with different "grit" sponges
and 3 or 5 separate compounds. You'll probably have to do the whole
windshield, but at least it should get the junk off it.

HTH.
