Default Window tint resin removal, HELP !

OK, just bought a uk 2000 turbo with the front windows tinted, peeled the tints off and its left a film of glue which just wont budge.
Tried 'sticky stuff remover' from halfords , T CUT, paint restorer, de -geaser, all with a allsorts of cloths inc a scourer !

Any suggestions appreciated

Yes mate, it lubricates the blade as your cutting off the glue. Do it all the time at work when getting stickers off windscreens.
