removing window tints

[clio_luke]

ok, had my tints on my car for ages now, just getting bored of them they are too dark, and i would like to remove them. has anybody done this before??
how difficult is this and will it leave all glue and s**t on my windows??
will the glass look 100% standard with no marks etc.
all help much appreciated.

tar n glue works wonders!!!

I've done it before, and tbh, i'd rather pour salt down my japs eye than try it again.
Its a complete ball ache of a job.

The last one i did, i took to a pro window tinting place and they removed every window tint for £40. That would be my recomendation.

sounds like a right ball ache! think i will leave them for now. so stanley blades and tar remover sounds the best bet then??

Be careful not to cut the heat strips on the back window. Most people damage them when removing tint.

Could always take it back to where you got them done and ask them how much it would cost for them to remove them for you as they will know what there doin

Its an absolute pain, especially on the rear window. I think none of the heating elements worked after lol!
