I am sure it is very simple, but sopay water didnt do the job and I didnt want to use something that might do any damage

have a look at this link to see the wizzy holder! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VW-Alloy-tax-...ryZ72231QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
I was the only one at the first watford meet that didnt have one
I pressumed nail varnish remover but thought I would double check before I let loose!!!

I would use Nail Varnish, but try not to spill it everywhere!

I think I'd use white spirit which I think is less agressive than the acetone in nail varnish remover. Still be careful though.

I looked at the pictures on that web site, but I am still confused

Is the "wizzy holder" to replace the VW emblem at the front and/or rear of the vehicle?

To remove sticky parts my son the mechanic said to use brake cleaner. I used it to remove the sticky parts left behind from removing the rear badges on my Eos. Works like a charm and does not affect the paint, therefore, would be great on windows as well.

Neither, in the UK we need a road fund licence (tax disk) and this is just a cool holder that holds it against the winscreen as the law demands.

If you pop into a tobacco kiosk and get some lighter fliuid (refined petrol) thats best for those (any) types of sticky residue. Also it does not contain any other compounds to cause streaking etc.
