Hello, i have a new windshield , but too much glue was put under the glass, so now it sticks out on the sides too much, and the windshield mouldings won't hold.

Any neat tricks people have on cutting away exces glue from under the glass?
Stanley knife won't reach, i need something that can go behind the glass and cut the silicone stuff.

Who installed your windshield? I'd take it back and have them fix it.

Fixed it.

I stole on of my wife's pottatoe cutter knives, heated it red, then took needle nose pliers to it and shaped it to fit between the opening of the window frame and the glass, i was able to cut under the glass and remove the excess.
