On glass? just scrape it with a blade. You can soak it with some window cleaner first if you like. I Dont know of any coating on C4 glass to worry about. Thats how they get those silly inspection stickers off. :smash:

They make a special razor blade scraper for removing inspection stickers; any NAPA store has them. If you like chemicals, VALU home stores have something called "Goo Gone Brand Sticker Lifter"; a chemical that softens stickers so you can scrape them off with a plastic scraper which is provided. I use this stuff to remove stickers from plastic surfaces.

Be careful using a razor-blade, they can scratch the glass. Just use on a 30 degree angle and pull slowly, just "scraping away" can scratch the glass permanantly. If you can't find Goo Gone, try Goof Off sounds like the same kind of stuff.
