Windshield Removal
Did a search on how-to remove the windshield on the forum but couldn't find what I wanted. I have Electraglide and have removed the 3 screws that hold the windshield into the fairing but the windshield seems to be stuck on somehow. Is there a sealant on the windshield that is keeping me from removing it?

buy a service manual - it will be one of the best things you can own.
there is a seal inside that may be stuck between the shield and the fairing - no big deal, just a little work and it will come loose... actually, you are very close to removing the outer fairing... only a few more screws and it will come off.... just for fun - might be a good time to learn that -

Pull the shield forward or towards the outer fairing, the inner fairing has tabs that fit into the ws to hold it in place. You only have to move it as far as the thickness of the ws, sometimes it can be slightly stuck on the weather stripping, just work it back & forth a little.

do be rough but don't need to baby it...
really, if you take the outer fairing off - it will all make sense.
When you get a chance, buy a service manual - it will be a great book to have in the future.
