How do I get clear coat off mirror

I just stripped and re-stained a wooden mirror. Too late I realize I should have taken the mirror out first. How do I get clear coat off the mirror?

Hi, Kathy. My experience has been that if you keep a razor blade wet, you can easily scrape paint off of glass without any scratching.
