Northern Paul Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 Hmm, yep, pretty much as above - is it possible to remove window tinting film that has been in place for some time? Rear quaterlights & rear windscreen. TIA, Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 try heating it with a hair dryer or hot air paint stripper blower or find one corner & pull it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJIbex Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 Yes, It should come off very easily. The trick however is to try and get the glue to come off with the film and not stay on the window; and not to mess up the rear heated screen. The ease of this will depend on the quality of the tint/glue. Westerns tip of the heating is very worthwhile. Mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bishbosh Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Windowlene and a sharp blade. The windowlene disolves the glue nicely, but it is still a slow process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
