    is factory window tint on the inside or outside of the glass? Wondering if I can clay outside glass to remove sap. How about using chemical cleaners for Sap removal on outside of glass?

    Neither. It's part of the glass. Clay away.

    ^ this.

    It isn't tinted glass, it's smoked glass. Go nuts.

    No need to clay just spray a little brake clean on a rag and wipe the sap off, (just the glass).

    Plan was to clay it, but this stuff is hard as a rock.

    Spray it with some window cleaner and scrape it off with a razor blade.

    A few drops of IPA on a cotton ball, dabbed it ONCE, and it came off with about two swipes of a microfiber. Super easy removal. Thanks all.
