I've tried all three of your methods with the same results you had. When I had to remove the tint from my car what worked best was to park the car in the sun, then spray the tint liberally with an ammonia based glass cleaner. Once it is good and wet get some thin plastic, I used a garbage bag, and put that up against the wet tint. Lightly squeeze it on like you would to apply tint but make sure not to leave the cleaner. Wait about an hour then I went back and the tint peeled right off without leaving any glue residue.
I guess there is a reason why it is always stressed not to used ammonia based glass cleaners to clean your tinted windows.
Indeed there is a reason it's recommended to not use ammonia on window tint 😊 thank you for your comment.
Very well done. Thanks.
Thank you for keeping it real - other videos show tint removal that looks like it has just been applied (or within about a month - the film is brittle or the adhesive hasn't really "set" but it looks like these windows have had some time to "cure". I've seen a lot of the "trash bag method" - I think that works well (from what I've seen) but almost looks like you have to be a decent installer to get the best results...
You're very welcome. We hope your removal goes well.
Very helpful, Thank you.
We are happy to hear you found it helpful 😊
Thank u😊
Thanks
I do have a steamer , seems that works the best , I am removing the tint on my 2013 Challenger, I am assuming the rear window is more difficult with the defrost on it , but again I have a steamer,thanks for the video guys
You are very welcome. We are happy you found it helpful. The back window is definitely the most difficult. Male sure you don't use a razor blade on the back window--you don't want to accidentally cut the defroster line.
I do really need to remove the black-out tint hat was applied to the 3rd-seat side windows of the big pickup m Dad bought. I will probably try some of these this weekend.
I must admit that I misread your title as being about "Removing TNT." I live in a still-rural, but being built up area with enough old buildings that I would not be surprised for that situation to come up.
Ha ha ha thank you for bringing that to our attention. We will try and brainstorm a better title to avoid any confusion in the future. 😊
great tip on steamer, thank you.
You're very welcome 🙂
I have a clear front window tint on my front windshield, they added a 6" sun strip at top of windshield, it is right at my eye level and annoying while driving. Is it possible to remove just the strip from the clear tint. Tinted less the 6 months ago, really would like to remove the shaded band. any advise is welcome
what do you recommend for the front windshield I really need it off I bought car that way and it's hard to see at night to drive since it's in the front windshield
We would use a steamer. Put a towel down on your dash before you start as well and push it down against the window.
Gracias 👍🏼
De nada!
Can I use the steamer method on the rear window with the defrost?
Yes
Yeah did it yesterday worked great thanks
@felixkey5337 you are very welcome. Happy to hear it worked out well.
Park the car under the hot sun on a stinky humid day also works
We haven't tried this; in theory, it seems like it could work. Although, if the entire car were hot enough to melt the glue on the window tint, it would not be fun to be inside that car removing window tint. Drink plenty of water 🙃
Apparently scraping IS required even when using the steam method.
Yes, that is correct. However, once the tint is removed, it's a lot easier to scrape just the glue. The steamer helps remote the tint, but some glue will be left behind.
Good video. Time stamps would have made it perfect.
Thank you for your comment
Trashbag and sun method is better
Why not show the trash bag trick
We have never used the trash bag trick. We can't confirm or deny that it works. It certainly wouldn't make sense in a shop setting.
I suppose wearing gloves would help from burning your hand
That's not a bad idea, but not necessary if you're reasonably careful.
Lol I live in Florida so it doesn’t take very long 😂
Lol!
I have a much better way to remove it. The basic idea is using Super Strong chemical to penetrate the tint.
You need some old school paint remover, or you can mix 6 part of methylene chloride with 4 part of methanol. You need protection gear of these chemicals. You put a lot of them on the old tint. Wait for 10 min. The tint will come right off without any effort. Then, use acetone to remove the glue. Repeat the process above..
Reminder: any product contains Methylene Chloride will do the job. It can get the job done really fast. However, this is a highly toxic chemical. You have to wear protection gear to do the job.
Adhesive removers can certainly be effective; however, there is a real risk of damaging anything other than the window you get them on.
@@InstallProz I tried all your ways to remove my old tint on the rear windshield. NONE of them work. I spent 5-6 hours only removing a small corner. Tint is inside so I cannot crap it with a razor blade.
Chemicals are the best solution. I cover all the places with masking tape and multi layers of paper and plastic wrap. The methylene chloride will penetrate the tint and dissolve the glue beneath. That's why it is so effective.
This idea is from my material science PhD friend.
Btw. All tint shops in my area refused to do the job. They said they cannot remove it without damaging my rear window heater line.
Interesting information. Thank you for your comments.
