really simple...pick up a corner of the tint and try to peel it away in one piece. the adhesive stays behind so spray lots of windex on it to cut into it. then take a single sided razor blade and start scraping. this works for the side glass but you can't use the razor on the rear windshield; i scrubbed with terry cloth. it can get messy so you should cover up the door panel and rear deck.

on the rear window
using a steamer, makes hot steam to soften the glue.
or get an amoina cleaner, a black trash bag, and towl
cover the rear tray w towel
spray the window tint with amiona, then smooth the bag on the tinted side of the window, and let it sit in the direct sun for an hour, checking- spray more it to make sure its kept wet. this will help to soften the glue. it mostly a pain to do the rear- alot of scrubbing

as mentioned, peel off the tint...the adhesive will stay but use ammonia (concentrated window cleaner) and a razor blade...i think its a pain to do but it can be done...i even had my windows out when i did it but it isnt necessaryOriginally posted by fizzbob7 i think the "jdm everything" craze is funny........it's the same thing, a fad.......and an overpriced one at that

when i got my tint done, there was another car gettin old tint off and new on, they heated it with a heat gun or u could prolly use a hari dryer, then get the edge and peel and u can also use a razor blade but be careful on the rear window cause of your defrost. if there is anything left over then you can prolly use goo-b-gone on it, that removes sticky crap good
