Re: Tint or no tint? Tell me what you think!
I actually bought a commercial steamer that is used for steaming clothes because I saw it on the vortex. It worked great for getting the tint off easier, but the glue still had to be removed as it was still stuck to the window.
I found that just peeling it off like a sticker worked well on some spots on the window as the glue came off with the tint.
As for removing the glue I used "Goof Off" remover. It's a product that works awesome for removing any kind of glue reside. You can get it at Rona or Home Depot or wherever.....
I was originally just wiping it on with a rag then letting it dissolve the glue, Then I found it was just soaking into the rag more than getting on the window. So what I did was use one of my old spray bottles for my glasses lens cleaner and I just sprayed it directly on the window and let it dissolve,
then wipe it off with a rag. Then once most of the glue is off I sprayed windex on and cleaned the rest off with that.
It worked out really well. I would suggest the steamer for the back window just because it peels off the window a lot easier and it reduces the chance it will peel off the defroster.
