Does anyone know how to get the tints off a car .. I bout this car and I cant even see out the back window the tints are entirely too dark

with a HAMMER you IDIOT!!1

I took mine off because they were getting nappy looking and this is how I did it. When the sun was shining I put ammonia in a spray bottle and sprayed the windows on the inside, then laid black trash bags across the outside of the window. I let it sit about 10-15 minutes and it came right off. These were windows that had been professionally done, so the tint was on very well. Hope that helps.

A razor and lots of time.A lot of those spray things that supposedly get the tint off don't work. Don't waste your money. If it was me, I would have it done just so I didn't have to do it, haha.

unless you really need to save some money, take it somewhere and have them do it. otherwise, get a straight razor and soapy water and scrape it off after you soak it down with a spray bottle of soapy rag. you might try lighter fluid or goo-gone if its really stubborn. if its a small car, it might just take a couple of hours, but a larger car or one with a slanted window can take quite a while.

Get a new window

start scraping with a razor blade and hand peel off as much as possible, then underneath it there will be a mess on the window from the glue and that is the worst part of the job, get a ton of fingernail polish remover, put it on a rag and start wiping.

you need amonia and steel wool ,,, yes i said steel wool to scrub off glue with more amiona babe. tell me how you like it

A box of razor blades, soapy water, and a sore arm.Get a squirt bottle full of soapy water, spray just little on one corner of the window, use your razor blade to scrape some of the tint out. Once you have a little of the tint peeled, you can peel the tint right off. But then comes the tedious part. The tint is off the window but the glue is still stuck on your window. You then need to spray the window with the soapy water and use the razor blade to scrape all the glue off. Be sure to keep the window wet with soapy water so the glue doesn't dry. Dried glue will make it twice as hard to get it off your window. Once the razor blade gets dull, use a new razor blade. And be sure you get it all off.......especially if the back windows roll down.Figure anywhere between 30 minutes to an hour to take all the glue off of each window.

Wait for a hot, sunny day. Take some trash bags, clear is best, then put it on the outside of your windows and cut them to approximatley the same size. doesnt have to be perfect. then put some dish soap, not ammonia, in a squirt bottle with some water and spray it on your windows. then place the precut trash bags onto the wet windows. press it on but leave water in there. If the trash bag isnt touching every part of the window it wont work where its not touching. It also wont work if there isnt water connecting the two together. Use lots of soap in your water. Let them sit in the sun for at least 15 minutes, but not more than 45. If the water dries you are going to have more trouble than if you never did it at all. It will reactivate the glue and make it stick harder. Start at one corner and test peel it. If it comes off without glue keep peeling slowly. If you pull too fast you will leave the glue behind. If there is any glue left on the side windows spray it with your soapy water then scrape off with a razor. the back window has the defrost that will come off easily with a razor, so dont use it. Use a spray adhesive remover, if you dont have any scrubbing bubbles (the tub cleaner) will do. Take the finest steel wool and gently scrub off the glue. If it doesnt come off easily dont scrub harder put more of whatever your using on it. This is not an easy task unless you have done it a bunch. If you have some money take it to a shop. It will usually cost 120 to 200 to take off. Good Luck!
