Easy Pass Users and Former Users - how to get the Velcro off the windshield

<p>Having moved far from toll-road territory, I want to know how to get the Velcro stuff off the inside of the windshield without damaging the glass. Is there a reasonably easy way to do this, or should I just accept that I’ll be living with the Velcro long after the Easy Pass has been transferred to Happykid’s car?</p>

<p>And come to think of it, how am I going to get it to stick to her car’s window without that half of the Velcro stuff?</p>

<p>For the second part of your question, the EZPass folks will send you new velcro stuff to put on Happykid’s windshield.</p>

<p>We recently had this situation. DH was able to remove the velcro manually and use a razor blade to remove the adhesive. He didn’t need to remove any remainder, but would have used goo-be-gone. It helps to do this on a hot day. </p>

<p>He ordered new strips from the state, but it took a couple weeks for them to come.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>How about one of those little plastic “scrapers”??? I bought a few of them years ago at Bed,Bath,Beyond and have used them for various things without any damage. It’s like a 2 by 2 inch squarish thingy - kind of a lightly flexible plastic. </p>

<p>A razor blade worked. Just make sure you keep the blade low and level and don’t jab into the windshield. </p>

<p>The velcro is still stuck on the old car and H didn’t bother with velcro on the new car.
He just keeps the EZpass in the cubby below the radio, and sticks it on top of the dash when going through a toll. (His car has a sort of space under the clock that makes this convenient)</p>

<p>I’ll bet you could get replacement Velcro at an auto parts store.</p>

<p>I no longer use the velcro strips because they were difficult to remove. I found this suction cup holder at my local car wash. They also have it at AAA. Looks like you have to make sure it fits your transponder.</p>

<p>I’ve always found that nail polish remover works for sticky stuff. Don’t know about the adhesive for the Velcro, though.</p>

<p>Your mention of EZ Pass made me think of this story in The Onion

<p>Our passes come with adhesive that sticks to the windshield- non transferable.
Razor blade is the only thing I could think of.
You might try applying ice to windshield to see if that makes adhesive more brittle and easier to scrape off.</p>
