How to get wood sealant off of a window (sh.itjust.works)

So I was using a wood sealer (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01AQTX3XU) on my newly built catio. Unfortunately I didn't notice how much I had sprayed on the adjacent window.

Now I have cloudy/foggy windows (https://imgur.com/a/TKD9wim). I've tried cleaning them with:- - - -

  • water via the hose directly on the window.. very little progress
  • windex.. very little progress
  • dish soap followed by host.. very little progress
  • vinegar.. very little progress

Any ideas for what might get this stuff off easily?---

A "Mr. Clean" sponge (one of the white ones) or a knock off. It cuts through haze and overspray on glass. I used it for the windows when I was spray painting the eaves and forgot the spray shield.
