The Things You Will Need

Before we start, here are some things you will need:

  • A hairdryer
  • A utility knife or razor blade
  • Water and soap
  • Ammonia (optional)

First: Heat It Up

First, heat the tint film. This will allow the adhesive to be loosened so it is easier to peel off. Your hairdryer should be on the highest setting. Keep it at least six inches from the window. Slowly move your hairdryer across the entire tinted window. You should not heat the glass too much as it could crack.

Second Step: Time to Peel

After the film has warmed up, you can begin peeling it! Begin at one corner of your window. Use your utility knife or razor blade to gently lift up the tint. After you have removed a small portion of the tint, you can start peeling off the rest. If the film isn't coming off easily, heat the area with the hairdryer again before you try to peel it again.

Third Step: Clean up

You'll likely find some adhesive residue on your glass after you have removed all tint. Use WD-40 or Goo Gone to remove the adhesive residue. Spray the adhesive with it and allow it to sit for a while before wiping it off with a clean cloth. This may require you to repeat the process several times in order to remove all residue. To remove streaks and smears, wash your windows with soapy water.

Keep These Things in Mind

Window tint removal is easy. However, there are some things you should keep in mind. You should ensure that you work in an area with good ventilation. Window tint chemicals and adhesives can be quite strong so make sure you don't inhale them for too long. As you work, make sure to not scratch the windows. It is not a good idea to scratch the glass while trying to remove the tint.
