A fellow builder on the list has recommended denatured alcohol and your
thumbnail, for the reasons noted.  This sounds really safe!  Forget a
manicure though.

Hi Andy,

I heard some solvents/products will cause the Lexan to
craze or turn milky (windex w/ ammonia, alcohol...). I
used kerosene (based on a tip from Rob Johnson) to
clean the tape residue w/ no ill side effects. Also,
you can snip a stir stick off square and use it as a
scraper - the wood is soft enough not to scratch the
window.
