Anyone removed window tints before? How is it done? Get the feeling I wont like the answer!

stanley blade, lots of soapy water, a sponge, lots of tea and fags ;)

Warm the window on the outside and very carefully peel off the tint.

For any stubborn bits rub lighter fluid on the inside between the window and the film.

I used some ear buds soaked in fluid and then carefully worked the remains of the tint off. lighter fluid will also remove the sticky stuff left over on the window.

 

Hope this helps. Good luck.

...as i suspected! Was hoping for some kind of 'special potion' to get it off!

Dave's option sound more professional ! pmsl

Usually can peel them off in one peice once you get a bit of the outer edge freed, seen it done lots of times !! just leaves some glue that can be a git to get off. but some decent window cleaner and elbo grease gets the job done

...lighter fluid, hairdryer, tea and fags it is!

I've never been that lucky theres always some little bits left especially on the rear window that just doesn't want to play ball.

Be particularly carefull not to destroy the heater elements when peeling the rear tint ! :nono:

Thats why it's good to use a hairdryer to heat it up first, One slip with a blade and its bye bye heated window

Cheers All. Will let you know how it goes!
