I treated my truck today and got over spray on my windshield and it left a film. What's the best way to clean it? Thanks for any help

Chemical removal Although ceramic coating have very good chemical resistance for most chemicals, they are not very strong against alkaline products. It is not clear if these are capable of removing the entire product, but they are know to damage the surface layer and negatively effecting their performance. It should be noted that a product that is chemical enough to remove a ceramic coating, can be strong enough to damage the paintwork underneath as well. Claying Claying alone is not likely to be enough, but it should have an effect on the coating. Especially when the coating is a bit worn, it should be possible to remove a large part of the product from the surface. Polishing It is widely believed that polishing is the most trusted way to remove a ceramic coating from the surface. This will also help to prepare the surface for the new product and remove certain imperfections.

my first thought actually was wondering if you used a razor blade if it could remove it?

What ceramic spray? Was it Adam’s was it an actual ceramic or just ceramic infused product.
Steel wool will surely remove it

Spray some on a microfiber and rub it in. It should reactivate the si02 and you can wipe it off will a clean towel
