tinted windows

Hey
I have a friggin dark tint on my back window thats starting to peel and basically looks like sh*t. Its probably Canadian Tire peel stick, I didn't put it on so have no clue. Anyone ever strip tint before? I have heard you can carefully use varsol and be pretty sucesful. Any suggestions?

Thanks for any help

To get the glue off, use regular acetone or just nail polish with acetone in it.

just remember, though... if You have defrost lines on the glass, You'll have to be careful not to break the lines anywhere...or they won't work, anymore (like I did) but, if there aren't any, get some dish liquid and water in a spray bottle and a good razor blade and go nuts!

I wouldn't use a razor blade with rear defrost, a lot of places sell "tint off" it works wonders, i used it. I would use a credit card instead of a razor blade if you can. If not then be real careful.

Tint off isnt that good to be honest. I use gasoline. If you use a razor say goodbye to your defrost.
