Clear View,

A couple of the popular ways available that will accomplish the task are the moisture evaporator or dryer, a mini butane torch, a heat gun a lighter for use inside the car,

Moisture Evaporator: is nice because it supplies radiant heat from an element as you introduce it. Alternate your heat and cooling cycles and don't let it rest on the windshield while using it to avoid breaking down the PVB or causing a crack out. I use the DELTA moisture evaporator and use 10-15 second heating cycles while moving it in a circular pastern approx. 1/4" to 1/2" from windshield until moisture is removed between cooling cycles.

Mini Torch / Heat Gun: these introduce forced hot air to the area. These will also do the job just fine but will also very easily have negative effects if not used properly. The butane torch will also have a carbon burn off build up which will vary depending on use. Depending on the temp range and supply rate of the torch or heat gun I would hold the unit a couple of inches away from the glass using alternating heat and cooling cycles in a circular pattern and based on the unit lower the heating cycle times.

Bic Lighter: while this will get the job accomplished it is not as user friendly at least in my book. This will also require the same approach basically but one added negative effect from this method is carbon residue from the burn off. Although this may or may not be visible and could effect appearance of the repair.

Alcohol: while I use 99% isopropyl alcohol for pre-repair cleaning, it has evaporative qualities and if there is any miniscule moisture still left it might remove it.
