The dealer is closed, and I just realized that the price I paid for my
Honda magically appears when I squeegee the windshield. Tried soapy
water, tried some ammonia, tried scraper knife.

No luck. What works? It's a long weekend here in Canada, so I might not
get the official answer until Tuesday unless somebody here can help.

Dude, you sure you didn't just steal a car off the lot and are trying
to get that stuff off the windshield before the cops catch you? ;-)

Acetone, available in quart-size tins at Home Depot, Wal-Mart, etc. for
under $5. Or maybe paint thinner, like the other poster said. Acetone's a
bit more expensive but I prefer it for many clean-up jobs.

Do not use acetone on plastic (it will melt the plastic). Also, it's not a
big deal if you don't wear gloves, but try to minimize getting it on your
hands. It dries out the oil in one's skin and is probably carcinogenic or
some other flavor of nasty "toxicity."

Add to the cautions the fact that acetone is *EXTREMELY* flammable,
and burns with a nearly invisible blue flame. It's also
highly volatile (i.e. it disperses into the air rapidly) and
the resulting air-acetone mixture can be explosive. One thing
you wouldn't want to do, for example, is pour out some acetone
into a dish in a garage with a gas water heater.

If you try anything like paint remover or similar just be very careful not
to get it on your paint job either.
