Removing Tint resedue off the windows?

[ReplicaR]

I had my tints removed because they were getting blurry and whatever, and there is some sticky resedue that is hard to take off just with elbow grease, so I want to know if there is a special solvent to take care of this, so I could just apply it and wipe it off.

Wal-mart and most auto parts stores sell a tint removal solvent. I think it's usually around $4 or $5.

Thanks for the tip. Just drove down to autozone and picked up some of that cleaner. Rear window is spotless now.

Why remove tint?


get a waiver...

Two reasons:

1. The tint was going bad. It had transparency quality of a shower door. I could not tell what was behind me, because everything 10 feet behind would turn into blur.

2. Track safety issue. People can’t see me give a point-by, when I allow passing, so it creates a dangerous situation, where people either tail you really hard, or almost rear end you, because you are supposed to let off while being passed.
