How to Properly Remove Car Window Tint?
1 Answers
This process is relatively simple. Just slowly peel it off at a certain angle. Lower-quality tints or those that have been on for a long time may be harder to remove. This step can be time-consuming (taking up to 2 hours is not uncommon). The reason is that the tint is applied to the inner side of the glass, making adhesive removal inconvenient. You'll need to use an adhesive remover to soften the residual glue, then scrape it off with a razor blade, and finally clean the glass. When removing the adhesive from the rear window tint, be extra careful as it may cause significant damage to the heating wires. Additionally, note that if you're removing a low-quality tint with many bubbles, wear a mask during the process. Poor-quality tints emit strong odors (releasing harmful gases like formaldehyde and benzene), which can cause dizziness with prolonged exposure, so protective measures are necessary. You can also prepare alcohol/acetone. First, get a soft, clean cloth, then pour a small amount of alcohol (preferably industrial alcohol) or acetone onto the cloth. Wipe the areas with tint adhesive repeatedly until they are clean.
