could try really tacky masking tape or sticky tape to start and see what happens...least it won't damage the clear part.
Listen and appear wise

If its acrylic then Ultimate cleaner or thinner will do the job

Just dip a cotton bud in the thinner, squeeze out the excess and give it a rub, should come right off
