Window tint removal

[Mono]

Does that film tint just peal off (nicely)? I can't see anything out of this limo tint!

Soapy water and a razor blade is about the best way to take it off. Goo be gone may work pretty good as well, but will make a mess.

i use vinegar water and a razor.. the vinegar almost has a "dissolving" effect on the tint.

Take it to a windo tint shop and have them remove it. The last time I had to do that was 10.00 to remove (wife got a tickit) and I think it was 35.00 to put back on after inspection. Dont go to fontana ca.;D ;D ;D Bill %) ;D

Ammonia will take off the adhesive residue after you peel the tint film off.

Get inside and spray the window down with windex or something..really soak it...Tape a solid black trash bag to the inside, tight against the windows, and let it sit in the hot, direct sun with the windows rolled up. Then just peel it off. Make sure it's nice and hot. The trash bag will keep in the moisture and help attract heat.

,,,I had that problem after I tinted the windows myself with 5% in the back area,which is even slightly darker than the 7% offered by the shops these days...I went overboard with increasing the lights for the side & rear,but small 50w lights in the bumper area will give you the same effect for backing up.....I value the dark tint for the sun & hiding all my stuff somewhat way too much to do without,,,, for removing I just peel the main section of tint off then remove the remaining adhesive residue & tint with windex,alcohol & razor blades

Steam works very well too.

,,,, I had the yakima steel head bike mounts from a previous vehicle through a mail order purchase ,so for the bronco I purchased the rain gutter towers & the bars to match at the local Sun&Ski store during a 20% off spring sale .... anyway there just the regular yakima 1A raingutter towers with their bars as mentioned in the other thread & found many places ,,, also I tried them with the extended rain gutter towers supposedly for dome roofs & they were way too tall..................
