ok so the tint was really easy to get off but now is the matter of gettin the adhesive off. windex didnt work, neither did matco, or any other cleaners. i know goo gone but i dont really wanna use that. is there any thing that is specific for tint adhesive and where can i get it. i kno that they sell it at wal mart but im at my pops house and wal mart is far away.

ps. the reason im taking it off is now that it has gotten warm ive been pulled over 3 times in the last week by the cops for having my fronts tinted. so off it goes. looks better anyways. what was funny is i got pulled over twice in ten minutes last week on like friday

I saw a buddy of mine do it with windex and a razor blade.
you have to be sure the blade sits flat so you dont scratch the window.

dude I used simple green and a garbage bag on mine. Just park your car in a sunny place, then spray the shit out of the window with simple green, and tape a black garbage bag over the window and let it sit for an hour. Then comeback with a razor and a sponge and you should just be able to wipe it off, and remove any stubborn spots with the razor.

hell yeah this works just fine,, but if your tint has bubbles... good luck. its gonna take you for ever or gaurantee your gonna have to peel little by little.. the back is the worst of all,due to the deforster lines...mines are all out...
