To remove adhesive, I use wd40 and a plastic razor blade or small pink scraper.
For my app fluid, I use 1 part alcohol (91%), two parts water and three drops of cheap baby shampoo. I bought a little trial size and have been using that same bottle for two years...
I use a microfiber cloth to clean the glass (no lint).
I try not to use wet application unless I absolutely have to. When I do, I usually hit the decal (with the app tape still on it) with a hair dryer to help speed up the drying, then I spray down the app tape, leave it for a minute and pull the tape off.
