itsss a ****ed job ahha i did mine! all i did was i had a stanleyblade and jsut slowly persisted....i have up after 2 windows ahaha good luck there must be an easyer way thogh

****

get a pro to do the rear windscreen as you dont wanna screw up the demister bars.. As for the rest... A heap of acetone and a good window scraper and lots of patience is all you need Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

mate its not that hard you can get a scraper peel the tint off then scrape off the glue but wet it first go to bunnings and buy a bottle of dissolveit spray that on the glue and then scrape it off i agree dont do the rear but

ok sick yeh was just seeing if ppl had a better idea about it than i did. cheers guys Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

dont do it at all haha

pay $110 thats what i got quoted (tint a car)

bring it round to mine, my mate that tinted my car will probly do it for a few beers

i did it my car looks 10 times better just get there corners started with a razorblade then peel off in one big sheet as for the glue thats abit of a task but metho worked ok 4 me with abit of elbow grease

Heat gun works a treat. As mentioned above don't try the rear window unless your experienced at it or it will end up like mine that a certain tint-a-car franchise did and only a few bars work now.

hmmmmmm, eh the car never gets driven in the rain or at night anyway. thanx 4 the heads up tho guys. an yeh i cant drive the car so thats y i am doing it.

a mate of mine owns his own detailing business he is good at it if you dont want to do it sms me on [phone removed] ill pass on your number or get a quote for ya

there's gotta be a way to get the tint off the rear, what do the pros do?

my calais doesnt have tint at all.... Looks clean and since i'd be rarely taking it out i dont see the point of putting tint on... It'll look alot cleaner Mike trust me Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

mike, i did mine after i got stickered ages ago,it took a while but persistance and a lot of acetone does the trick, all this about tint cummin off in sheets lol... mine was 1 1/2 months old and it all seperated when peeling off, ***in **** of a job, ill never be doing it again lol ,hence i got legal now Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

its pretty easy, i done it twice now. just heat the window up for a little while (i used heat gun first time and hair dryer the second, both worked) then start at a corner, lift the edge up with a stanley and start pulling slow. pull it off perpendicular to the window, seems to come off easier. Heat the area that it is coming off as u go along, from both sides of the tint. then i used some septone wax and grease remover, about 1 part in 4 part water, half filled an ice cream tub. then grabbed a 'steel wool' type thing that is for cleaning dishes (big loopy sort of thing) and rubbed that over with the 'water', gets the glue off easy. i did the rear window too, just take a bit more time pulling and heating, maybe even turn the demister on so that it heats the glue locally. the first car i ripped tint off was only a few months old and i dont know if the demister bars are still good because i have never used it in that car. second car, it must of been 15 year old tint because it was purple and bubbled. as i was pulling it off, it split along each demister line, so i was just pulling off 1inch strips. and there is a company in perth street car mag that says they strip your old tint for free when u get new tint with them, might have been sunguard which i got my new tint at, they are good price and looks good.

once again cheerrs 4 the tips guys, neRok your a champ. 2 windows where already taken off lol, just the front 2 an rear!

lol i did it for work work experience in year 10 (getting it off is easy but tinting a car is a Kent of a job lol (id never do it again lol. no tint ftw haha

while we're on the subject of tint, my front drivers window tint is peeling a bit, can i get some tint glue and a tint squeegee and glue it back to as good as new? or will i have to get the whole window redone?
