I have a purple windshield on my sled and im not a big fan of it. I was wondering if there was a way to take the purple off and paint on a differnt color. I dont want to buy a new one. So I was wondering what is the easiest way to remove the purple paint on the windshield. Thank You.

Since your gonna paint it anyways, just sand it off. Start with a rough grit and work your way down to a fine grit.

Is the paint on the back of the windshield or front.

careful you dont use too heavy of a grit. a scotch bright pad with comet will work also.

if it's on the inside then just paint over it

Sand the paint off the inside then paint the inside, it will be glossy on the outside and will look fine when complete. Happy sanding.
