Masking tape residue on frosted glass

Anonymous user 28/02/2024 - 3.05 PM

Hello A while ago i had every intention of varnashing some new doors so i put masking tape on the frosted glass to stop getting varnish on the glass. I am now returning to the varnishing and the tape has left the sticky residue on the frosted glass, i have tried scrubbing with soap and warm water but it will not clean the residue off. Are there any 'secrets' you can share that will clean the glue residue off the frosted glass? Many thanks. Paul.

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

Jif and a Stanley knife blade.. You can actually buy a glass scraper from wickes or b and q. Be careful because some cleaning products mark the glass. You can also buy glass cleaner from a window company.. Any fine blade used slowly should get it off. Good luck.
