How to EASILY Remove Old Window Tint

Window tint for me is one of the first things that should be installed on a car once purchased. It was the 2nd modification I did on my Honda after the security system, and it was one of the first mods on my Z as well. My MINI on the other hand came with tints when the car was purchased. This means I was unsure of the grade of tint, along with the upkeep that has been done to the car. It seems like the front door tints have been delaminating as they are starting to show their age. In this video, I show you how I was able to remove all of my tints WHILE ensuring the 10 year old adhesive comes up with the tint.
I can have a tint shop remove the old tint for me, however it would mean that I would have to pay them for that labour. I’m all for spending money on your car to make it nice, but I like to think that I do it in a wise manner. If I can save some of the labour costs on the job, it means that I can opt for a higher quality tint and I won’t feel bad about it.

Had I known how easy removing window tint from a window in the house I bought 10 months ago would be, I wouldn't have procrastinated for, well, 10 months. I used a hair dryer and was done in maybe 10 minutes. Easily cleaned any residual with rubbing alcohol. Most valuable instructional video I have watched in a long time and maybe ever.

The residue left completely covered the passenger side window that I attempted your process with. You cannot guarantee that this procedure will work for every case.

Just bought a car that had 5% tint all around, and it was almost impossible to see at night. My wife absolutely refused to drive the car, so I went to a couple of shops, and they actually didn't want to remove it because of the adhesive, so with no other choice, I had to do it myself. Your video absolutely saved me, not only was I able to easily remove the tint, but the few glue spots I did have also came off easily. I can't thank you enough!

You know, ... the coolest thing about using a razor blade to remove the adhesive, is that when you cut yourself, the adhesive allows you to just press the skin back together ... and "presto" ... you are good as new! (Haven't tried it with muscle tissue or tendons yet, but I sure it will work just fine.) 😜👍

So, I gave your method a try today. It's been on my list of things to do for a year! I finally got at it today. I failed on the first window because I didn't let it heat up enough (using a heat gun)... I was too cautious I guess. The other windows worked pretty well... except for the rear windshield... the adhesive stayed on the glass (completely! lol). After scraping the windows (with a razor blade) I used mineral spirits (usually used for cleaning paint brushes) to get the rest of the adhesive off. It worked really well but absolutely wreaked!! lol I should say, I didn't use the razor on the rear window as I didn't want to wreck the defogging filaments. thanks for posting the video!

⭐The only problem is that this only works on newer tent like you have not on 10 or 20 year old tint! When the tent is fairly new the glue or adhesive is still pliable, whereas after it has been sitting in the sun for 10 to 20-years it becomes crusty and heat will not make it soft again at that point... (Been there, done that, got the T-Shirt!)

Good vid! While I'm certain this works for most, I'm that person where it's never that easy. Only had my tint for about 20 months and wanted to take it off my front 2 windows. Followed the process and for whatever reason, from the middle down the adhesive just stuck to the windows. I couldn't understand why. Then, Goo Gone, Alchohol, none of that worked well getting it off. I spent over an hour barely making progress scrubbing and didn't want to use a blade. BUT let me tell u, I went to the store and off a hunch got Goof Off Pro Strength Remover for like over 5 bucks. That stuff wiped the adhesive off like it was nothing with no effort. Harmless to the glass. Took me only a couple minutes to get it off of the other window.

Does your defroster grid on the rear window still work? The easiest removal method for the rear window is this... Use a large BLACK plastic trash bag, slit so it's one large piece. Spray the inside of the rear window with a glass cleaner, like Windex and spread the plastic bag on the glass. Tuck it in the corners and just under the plastic trim. You want it flat and touching the entire window. The liquid glass cleaner will help it 'stick' to the glass. Now park the car outside with the back window DIRECTLY facing the sun. Let it bake for about 30-40 minutes until the glass is too hot to touch. On the inside, lift a small top corner of the plastic bag and start picking at the edge of the tint, while leaving the trash bag on the glass. Start pulling the tint, very slowly. It should come off smoothly. If it makes a ripping sound, it's not hot enough and is most likely leaving adhesive on the glass. If that's the case, Leave the trash bag on longer. You should be able to remove all the tint with adhesive using this method. If your old tint is purple and bubbling, that means it's a cheap laminated old tint and will most likely separate, leaving another film layer still on the glass. This layer will come off in tiny smelly pieces and will take HOURS to remove and it will leave it's adhesive on the glass. A steamer is your only alternative at this point, if you want to have a working defroster grid. I've been tinting for 30 years and this is the most reliable method of pulling tint cleanly off the glass. Your dry heat method won't work on purple tint. Also, when removing tint off any other window, use your heat gun to get it hot, but have a spray bottle mixture of water/dishwashing soap and spray under the tint where it's still hot. Keep pulling slowly, when it makes a ripping sound, STOP, heat more and spray more soap solution, repeat.

Heat gun (or hair dryer), razor blade, and a cleaner. Wow, this saved me some money. Thanks

If you haven't got one, a hair dryer works well enough ✌

Thanks for a great video. Just bought a beautiful and incredibly clean used PT Cruiser, and the film is toast. Only thing I can add (since I haven't started yet) is, from experience on other adhesives, maybe try using gauze pads and 100% acetone (fingernail polish remover-the original) to clean left on residue. The gauze is JUST abrasive enough without scratching glass, and the acetone basically turns the adhesive into its liquid base, so it will just wipe off. The only thing is you have to work fast, especially in hotter weather, because the acetone will evaporate quickly. Just do small sections at a time. Let me know if it works. :)

i ripped the tint off my driver window and thought i broke it but all of the adhesive was still on it i came into this completely blind. i watched this video on how to do it and hit it with a heat gun and the other 3 and 2 smaller ones came off with little to no adhesive on them! as for the adhesive window i scrubbed it with googone and it was taking forever so i hit it with a razor blade and it took no time at all! super helpful video i’d recommend it to anyone going to take their tint off without knowing how to

Good video. We use a steamer wich is a bit safer if you dont remove interior panels. And you use a heat gun. Be careful to not burn them... we have a good video on re tinting

Ok, just took mines off. No need for a heat gun, blow dryer works just as good. I started with my front windows and it was rough. I peeled it hard and left glue residue behind (even by using the blow dryer) Acetone didn’t work to remove the glue. I used Goof Off (household heavy duty remover it’s blue) and it worked amazing...at least for me. I bought the little spray bottle, sprayed it on the window and it cleaned it right off. As for my other windows all I needed was my blade. When you are pulling my best advice is to pull downwards real slow...really slow. Do not pull too hard. At this point I didn’t even need my blow dryer or the goof off. No, I am not a pro but I sure did feel like it afterwards 😎
