Use foil and an iron
There is another way to remove paint from the glass. Heat it using a special construction of the dryer or a regular household iron. Under the influence of high temperature paint will begin to soften, and it can be quite easy to remove. Attach to the glass of a conventional foil and it on top of heated iron and hold for some time as long as the paint is not properly warmed up. To do such manipulations are possible only with thick large drips and drops. If the glass is just slightly soiled, thin layer, heat will not help, better to use a normal solvent.
