And what if here in laredo tx its 115 degrees outside, as hot as the desert, do we still have to have the car on? or can we just park it in the sun? Because over here the vehicles get soooo hot that the windows and doors really burn you if you touch it, and naturally by the super hot sun!
worked like a charm. took me about 45 minutes on a regular sunny day in san diego, ca. no glue or any residue left behind. even had the tint rip on me 3 times, but i still got it all off clean. i didnt use a razor blade. i just pick the edge of the tint film with my finger nail and started peeling from there. now its time for me to go make some side money. thanks again!
if some glue remains on the back window can u do the same cleaning method with the razor blade and windex without damaging the defroster? or do you have another method of cleaning leftover glue? thanks for posting very helpful video btw!
in DK you can tint rear side windows and the back as dark as you want to as long as you have 2 side mirrors but never the front side or front window.....that's a 100$ fine, plus the car are getting called in to be checked at the vehicle inspection place...that's more than 50$......plus what else they can find to annoy you with....
wow dam its that easy and im gettin the windows retinted on my car because it turned purple and the guy thats doing it wants to charge me 275$ to remove the old tint and put new tint on if i take it off myself he will only charge 150$
awe dude good thing i watched this video. i started to do it in the shade of my garage. Started the job. tint started to rip here nad there. Thought I needed a new razor and decided 2 check YT at the same time. saw your tip to park in the sun. so i went to the store parked in the sun. came home parked in the sun. didn't even go to the house and started peeling. came off fine. my tint is 12 years old. Was 5% faded to 22% and started turning purple. thanks!! rated you too
Wish I had seen this before I left half of my rear window with slivers of tint here and there. Now I have twice the work ahead getting all of that crap off my window!
JUST got back inside from removing my tint from both front windows and rear window and the only thing on my mind the whole time was thank GOD i watched this video. This is UNDOUBTEDLY the best way to do it, thanks so much man. you're awesome.
Great job and great tutorial, just removed my 13% tint and replaced it with 35%, but first taking pictures to send to court. Thanks for the tips and goodluck with your business
Yes! Thank you! I moved from Las Vegas to WA and just removed my front sides using this technique. The trick is definitely in the ammonia window cleaner and the heat. Worked like a charm with very little left over glue which easily came off. This is definitely the way to do it!
If you need to remove tint on a rainy day, all you need is 15 minutes of working your heat gun around the outside of the window you are stripping after you spray it down and cover it with a garbage bag. One thing he didnt mention is that the garbage bag keeps the window cleaner from drying up. It is kind of like you are steaming your window. I have been tinting for 19 years and using this trick for at least 10. You are better off covering the side windows with plastic as well.
Excellent and informative, Moved to DE from FL and failed inspection due to Driver & Passenger window tint. Took your advice with some Modification. I used a Heat gun outside the windows to simulate a scorching summer heat. Everything was dead on with r razor blades, Windex and glue etc. TAKE YOUR TIME peeling, esp near window frame and doors. This Tutorial helped me 100%
great video, i just got a $203 ticket for driving with driver and passenger tint and i have to remove it within 10 days, after work im going to follow this step by step. thanks for the video

You could also instead use a heat gun and get the glass really hot by heating the outhside of the glass real good then remove the film on the inside

@mehrshadvr4 P Only from the outside. Be careful. Don't overheat.

Something I do whenever theres no sun and its not as powerful as a heat gun, use a hair drier. Works pretty good.
