It's easy enough just a bit time consuming, Kust start pealing it off and clean the windows and should be ok

The best way to remove tint is to start at one corner and apply heat. Then carefully peel the tint. You just got to be a little patient.

the best way to remove tints is: wait until it gets cool in the evening and find a corner and peel SLOOOWLY. This way, you have very little to no ''goo'' after film is removed. It works for me all the time.

You just gotta be patient.

Cheers,
Jarrod.

use johnsons baby shampoo. it comes in a gold bottle. smear it all over the tints leave it for 5-10 mins then peal away! be careful of the heated strips in the rear window.

just start at one corner and peel slowly, use a stanley blade style scraper if u miss any bits or cant get it started.

all the goo thats left will come off VERY easy with a little petrol on a cloth :)

yeah. just peel slowly with some tension and use petrol on cloth to remove any remaining glue on the glass. then use a soap to clean the glass off any petrol.

When i removed the film on mine, it left a second layer on the window which was a bitch to get off. Ended up using a cloth and Cellulose thinners and it was all good with the heated strips aswell. Takes ages though :shoot:
