That should come off fine mate, as said before a light going over with g3 or maybe an even lighter cutting compound will fetch it off.

caramel wheels are for removing glue left on by badges, side strips etc.

as said many times a tiny bit of G3 would get that off or personally i would thinners it off then it would be off in second then just polish with a normal hand polish to bring up to a shine.

For the love of god don't go sanding it, compounding it or caramel wheeling it, and don't take a blade to the glass either! It will be cellulose based paint as it's out of a rattle can. That will come off with a bit of cellulose thinners on a rag, no problems. It won't take off the cars original paint as that's 2k lacquer.

No it wont, I did it to my engine bay on my Corsa and it comes off like chalk on a blackboard once you've got it nicely penetrated. I'd go and make a video to prove you wrong as I have a bonnet I need to strip off in the workshop, but I can't be arsed as i'm sure you're just arguing for the sake of it.

thinners will take it off in seconds, also if its on the fabric roof then u can use a small amount of thinners on that, and with the glass thinners takes it off eaily, as long as u dont have any shit smart repairs on the car then it will be fine.
