Razor blade and windex for the tint and rubbing alcohol for the glue.

Go to the hardware store and get a decal erasor for your drill. Thats what I use and it works great. Lots better than messing with a razor, I have a habit of trying to cut off fingures.

A black trash bag lay in on your truck dash on a hot day and go out in a few hours in will peel right off

Use "Tuff Stuff" upholstery cleaner!

The foam "clings" to the glass, and the thing has "ammonia", which helps dissolve the old tint's glue.

Tuff Stuff + razor blade

I've heard that ammonia is really good at taking it off, but you have to be careful useing it. From what I've heard, you spray it on put a bag over it on a hot day, let it sit for an hour or so and it will come off with ease.

1. Spray the tint with "simple green" on a sunny day
2. Using masking tape or painters tape, tape black bag behind it and let it bake off
3 Have a few
4. After it sits for a few hours while its still hot take bag off and razor the tint off, tint will split from window like butter

Be sure you clean window really well before re tinting the window

When you put your new tint on, don't clean the windows with anything that has ammonia in it. That's what turns them purple over time.
