View Full Version : Window tint Time March 8th, 2006, 12:07 PM How do you get it off? Its on my back window and its bubbled up and looks bad, I cant see out. I dont wanna scraped it off and ruin the rear window defrost. :help EROC March 8th, 2006, 04:41 PM Well there is an easy way that cost money and then there is the hard way that cost less money. Less money you say: Well first of if you are lucky enough and your Tint is SO bad that it’s just peeling then you may be lucky. I would buy pure Ammonia Windex doesn't work as well. Do not use any power tools it will scratch your glass. At any rate you put the Ammonia into a spray bottle and apply plenty. Suggestion... Take the Hatch off. Good op to align it anyway. ;-) Apply plenty of ammonia everywhere you see tint. Then have Trash Bags that you cut on the seams and cover the glass/tint patting it down. Everything must be covered. No the hard part Patience. You will need to watch and see if it’s drying out or not. If it is apply more. Then start on a corner with Paint Remover scrappers. Even a Flat metal scrapper will work just don't lean on the edges. If there are tough spots like I had MORE PATIENCE? This may or may not take more then one day so be prepared. It took me 4. :flirt The easy way... Pay someone to do it. lol Good Luck. COUNTRYMAN01 March 8th, 2006, 06:54 PM The compnay that was going to do my 99 said that they were going to steam it out.

That may work real well. I am not sure if that is what they were really going to do they may just did not want to explain it ?

If you don't already have yours (:o ),you can rent then. 91RS28 June 29th, 2006, 10:02 AM steaming is much more effective and faster than amonia Stephanie July 13th, 2006, 04:18 PM There is a place in Mesquite that will remove your tint and put new on for one hell of a deal. He did mine (02 mustang) removed and put 5% all around for $150.00 Time July 25th, 2006, 12:44 PM not too bad I guess, but I would be more inclined to call "free" a hell of a deal.LOL |
