[JosephD05]

My back window has the marks from the packing tape. It was kind of an emergency, so I using packing tape and forgot about it. Now I have that sticky substance left behind. Any idea how to remove it?

Goo Gone, WD-40, citrus cleaner (forget the brand name) would all work to safely remove adhesives. You can find these in the paint section of Lowe's or Home Depot. Just ask for adhesive removers.

All fo this stuff is safe for the defroster strips right?

Sure, just be sure to rinse the area with mild detergent/water after getting the goop off. Leaving solvent on a any surface is not the best thing to do.

IMO the citrus degreasers leave the least residue and residue can be removed with water. Goo Gone and WD40 tend to be more oily.

Just be sure to NOT use any type of scraper or razor blade to remove that stuff, those defroster grid lines are very fragile.
