Window tint removal

ballooba · 2012-02-19 20:47:50

Anyone have any recommendation for window tint removal? I tried Shades but their hours are inconvenient. If there were anywhere convenient to the city centre or that opened before 9am (or weekends) then this would be ideal.

Hot steam washer and peel it back one window at a time.

I thought that the glue residue was the main problem. I'll probably get new tints as well.

I've booked in with Vision FX. I can leave the car with them in the morning at 8:30am and pick it up at lunch time. Price was same as Shades too.

Waste of money. All you need to do is get it started and peel, slowly and gently. Glue residue only stays if you hurry the job, and meths will get nearly anything off a window.
