Use a coin - just lay it flat on the glass and rub it up and down and it should come off! I do this all the time

I have very similar doors that I was cleaning today. I use vinegar spray to clean the glass and some it shifted while I was doing that. Would imagine it would take a lot of elbow grease (not the spray) to do it properly though

I am really intrigued why did you use hairspray? Like all say you need a blade.  
by (800 points)
@agglutinin2984 Because somebody told me to use hairspray. And I have scraped the majority off with a blade, I was just looking for something a big more easier
