Remove gloss paint?

how do you remove old gloss paint from glass

Answers:
I was doing this just the other day!

A scraper is the best. I was worried it might scrape the glass but it was fine. Nice and quick!
turps, lots of it
get a scraper from the hardware shop, its specially designed to do it and its easy to use
Stanly blade and elbow grease
You use a single-edged razor blade. It can't possibly scratch the glass.
glass scraper, available from most diy centres,
white spirit
Turps or nail varnish remover (not as abrasive)
Hi I would use white spirit and a scraper.

Be careful about the products that you use if your windows are UPVC because certain products will react with the plastic and either stain or melt the plastic. For example most nail varnish removers have acetone in them which melts plastic.

Good Luck
GET A BOTTLE OF PAINT STRIPPER AND PAINT IT ON THE WINDOWS WITH A BRUSH IT WILL PEAL THE PAINT OF BUT MAKE SURE YOU WEAR GLOVES WHEN YOU DO IT
Use a scraper with a blade, small hand held item available in most DIY shops, sometimes as part of a set of blades, or turpentine but that may be a bit messier.
The others who said scrapers were correct, make sure it is in a special holder, it looks like a utility knife blade (Stanley) and it works a treat.
use a blade like this ones used in a stanley knife.
