Window Tint Removal?

Rich11 · October 12th, 2011, 10:24 PM

What's the easiest and safest way to take it off? My car got broke into awhile ago, so I have one un-tinted widow. The previous owner didn't know what the exact percentage is, so I figured to just go darker.

Get a steamer, warm up a corner, and it will pretty much just pull right off.

You will also need a tint removal kit. Basically it's a spray and razor blade and cost like $6

Do they sell those at autozone?

a razor with some goo-gone ( NOT GOOF-OFF) will work as well. just takes some time and some scraping.

No need for the removal kit with the steamer. The steam will warm up the glue and allow it to be just pulled away easily. I did my whole car in about 15 minutes with steamer.
