How do you get paint off car windows?

I used car paint markers to write on my back window a week or so ago under the impression that it would wash off with water when I was ready to take it off. Well, it doesn't wash off with water, so does anyone know what I can use to take it off??How do you get paint off car windows?
1 Acetone Gather the acetone and rags and move the car into a well-ventilated area, such as the driveway. Apply the acetone to the rag and wet thoroughly. Do not breathe the acetone. Apply the saturated rag to the window and begin wiping the acetone over the entire window; the paint will come off. Use this technique if the paint is an overspray and not totally covering the window. If the paint is heavy on the window, refer to Step 2.


Step2 Paint Razor Use a paint remover razor if the paint is thick on the car window. Begin scraping the paint off the car window, being careful not to allow the droppings to fall into the car vents. Sweep the scrapings off the car with a rag, or vacuum them away.


Step3After the entire window has been scraped with the razor, if there is any paint left use acetone on a rag to completely remove the traces. Follow the procedure in Step 1 and the windows will be free from paint. Wash the car with soap and water.How do you get paint off car windows?
you can try using fresh razor blades to scrape it off, use them like you would an ice scraper, just be careful not to cut yourself, very sharp.





or, you can use paint thinner, but be careful not to get it on your car body, or it will mess up your paint.





I would try the razor blades first.
a good way to remove paint from windows is with a razor blade. if you have a box cutter remove the blade from the handle itself and just use the blade with your hand. it takes a little longer than just washing, but it will come right off. DO NOT USE THE RAZOR BLADE ON PAINTED SURFACES. glass is fine but paint will be ruined.
gasoline on a rag works on just about everything even spray paint and wont mess up your cars paint as long as you don't let it soak over night
Razor blade
try water and vinegar





2 parts vinegar to 3 parts water
STEEL WOOL WORKS EVERYTIME WITH VERY LITTLE EFFORT, i have to do it everyday at my dad warehouse
Windex.
get a new window for your car.
paint thinner
blade and water
use a clean razor blade. it should scrape off right away, and if it doesnt use glass cleaner(windex)
Use a razor blade to scrape it off
