Tinted windows removal

[tenrec]

Anyone know how I can remove tinted window film from my car windows without leaving a residue. Is it relatively simple? Any tips much appreciated.

Look for the bottom left / right hand corner then peel back the film.

Just got back, thanks TWR. I have decided that because it is only about 3 inches in a top corner that is damaged I might just carefully remove that corner by scoring very carefully across the offending corner. What do you think?

MIND YOUR FINGERS?? use a Stanley Blade Tenrec, what you say done gently / slowly will work.

Thanks for the advice TWR. Next time I'm on here, if my typing is particularly bad, you'll know I've lost a digit or two!

If you decide to remove it totally then a wallpaper steamer works well.

LOL, providing you take your time the job should be o to do, on a point, are these Tints legal? make sure they are on the Drivers door & also the passenger as you can get stopped by the police that can ask you to remove them where the car stands obviously in a safe place, just check up Tenrec.

Thanks Chuck, but I think it would not be worth me hiring a steamer for that.

Mate try using a hair dryer, start on one corner and slowly make your way across, usually remove adhesive with the tint.
