i advised to try goo gone since it is used for sticky residue. it might break what ever was left over from the paper on the window. it could just be the laminate on the promotions so goo gone might break it loose since it acts like a sticker along with a good scraper.

What should I do?

Call the company who placed the flyer on my window or what?

Just a clean blade + foaming glass spray should do the trick

Does it list their specials and phone number? This could be very efficient to have permanently in place.

First you need to disconnect the line that feeds into your fuel tank. this will take the pressure off the Paper to the glass. then spray sum industrial Aircraft paint remover and spay it all over, you will see how it melts away.. Aight Peace!

almost forgot, or take a razor blade and goo gone.

dealer can take care of this for you...if you have to ask, you may not be capable of doing it yourself. If you do decide to take on the task, please take pictures and post a DIY in case this ever happens to anyone else.

Seriously dude? Haha. Oh well...

Get a towel, boil some water, put the towel in said water and remove.... Place towel on said part of windshield for like a minute... Then proceed to scrub away the debris. Either that or use a razor blade and some goo gone/windex.
