One of my KC stickers fell off my rear vinyl window a month or so ago and I was curious if anyone used finger nail polish or products like that to remove that smeared sticky residue that doesn't want to come off without take the window with it. Any advice would help? Wanting to go at it today.

GooGone is what I would recommend. Just apply it to a microfiber cloth, rub some on, let it sit and then rub off. Reapply as necessary.

I would recommend testing the goo gone on a very small section of your vinyl window first.

Make sure you get Goo Gone not Goof Off. Goo Gone is citrus based, Goof Off is petroleum based.

I use WD-40 to remove all sticker residue. Works perfect. Paint is never affected. I removed a quarter size sticker residue from the rear soft top window and it worked great.

You can use some isopropyl alcohol as well. Just need some thing to break the barrier. Also would recommend letting the window warm up in the sun. This will help get the glue off. Also go in node direction not circles. Take your time.
