I just removed Spraylat that had been on about 9 months by using warm
water and a citrus cleaner, then scraping with a plastic scraper.  It
came off easily and left no marks.

Hello all,

We have found (unfortunately) that the best way to remove old Spraylat
is to use a 50%/50% mixture of acetone and mineral spirits to help
soften the coating. Care must be taken to not have too high of
concentration of acetone otherwise it can create a haze on the window.
It is best to try on a scrap piece of window material to test the
compatability. Again, prevention is the best course, a minimum of 4
coats applied, with each additional coat applied just as the previous
coat has dried enough to brush/spray without deforming the previous
coat. Removal and replacement should be done annually at the very
longest, and preferrably every 6 months.

Regards,
