Just use a fresh single edge razor blade on glass or tiles...works great and no fumes. Spray the residue away after you're done scraping. This is much faster and safer than using chemicals, neater and you don't need gloves. -

Mr. Clean Eraser and Palmolive Gel Diswashing Detergent worked for me. Do it exactly the way SHALYMAR413 instructs. It didn't even take a lot of effort.

After reading about the Mr. Clean eraser tip, I had to try it right away -- it was amazing and easy. We're in the process of selling our house, so I'm a real fanatic about spotless cleanliness, and this truly did the trick.
