Searching For How To Remove Window Tint?

Jul 17

If you're like most people then you won't think twice about your car until you have a problem. One of the problems you may face if your window tint has been removed is how to remove it.

Window tinting can improve the look of your car windows and provide privacy, but it can also make it difficult to get rid of if you don’t know how to do it. We'll show you how to remove your auto window tint like an expert in this blog.

How Does Window Tinting Work?

Window tinting is the process by which a thin film is applied to the windows of your car. This film can be clear and colored or mirrored. It can reduce heat and glare as well. You can make it harder for people inside to see your car through window tinting.

 

There are many reasons that you might need your window tint removed. In some states, it may be necessary to remove tint in order to sell your vehicle. If you want to replace your old window tint with one that is more durable, you will need to get rid of the old film first before you can apply the new one.

Whatever the reason for your window tint, it is a difficult process that requires patience as well as attention to detail. This guide will show you how to remove your tint like a pro.

What You Need

Before we get started there are a few things that you will need.

  • A hairdryer
  • A utility or razor knife
  • Soap and water
  • Ammonia (optional)

Step 1: Heat It up

First heat the tint material. This will make the adhesive easier to peel. You can set your hairdryer to the highest setting, and keep it approximately six inches from any window. Slowly move hairdryer over the entire tinted glass. It is important not to heat the glass too hot as it can cause cracking.

Next: Peel

Once the film has been heated, it is time to peel! To begin, start in a corner and lift a section of tint with a razor blade or utility knives. Once you have lifted a small amount of the tinted area, you are ready to begin peeling the remaining film. If you have trouble getting the film off, heat the area again with the hairdryer.

Next Step: Clean Up

You will likely still have adhesive residue on the glass after you have removed the tint. Goo Gone and WD-40 are good options to get rid of this residue. Spray it on the adhesive and let it rest for a few seconds before wiping off with a damp cloth. To get rid of any residue, you may have to do this several times. You can then wash the windows using soap and water to remove any streaks.

What to Remember

Although it is quite simple to remove window tint, there are a few things to be aware of. First, be sure to work in a well ventilated area. Window tint chemicals and adhesives are quite strong. Don't breathe them in for long periods of time. It is important to avoid scratching windows when you work. While you are trying to remove the tint, the last thing you want to do is damage to the glass.

Conclusion

That's all. Now you should have tint-free, clean windows. If you found the guide helpful, share it with anyone else who might need to remove window tint.
