Default Removing overspray from glass

OK, I recently noticed a little overspray on my windshield. I originally thought itwas just on the inside glass needing to be cleaned. But no appears to be overspray on the exterior.

The carfax history didnt show any collison damage so who knows...

Whats best to use to remove it?

Thanks

It might just be "fallout".
Just clay bar the whole car.

if its only on the glass a brillo pad will do the trick, whether its overspray or not. If theres overspray on the rest of the car a claybar may do it. if its too heavy it may have to be compounded.

dude you can just use a razor blade on your windsheild. just make sure it wet with water or windex etc. it will take it right off. not really any need for claybar.
