I was wondering if there was a way to remove a small amount of plastic glue, AKA model cement (not super glue) off of my windshield, on the inside without damaging it. Thanks

I have a ’92 ford deathtrap, er, I mean, Explorer, if that matters.

The bloody thing just fell off yesterday.

Don’t tell me expoxy-type glues. They don’t stick fast enough, I can’t clamp it, and I can’t very well sit there for 10 minutes holding the damn thing.

I was thinking a hot glue gun.
Well, I went to the auto supply. Bought the w/s repair kit. Followed directions EXACTLY. It didn’t work. The glue is nothing but superglue and it didn’t stick for beans.
I think part of the problem is that the “button” is part of the mirror. It’s a metal piece that looks like it slides into the mirror, and it was glued in. Should i try soaking the thing in acetone, see if I can get the button out, then try it that way.
