Took me a box of razor blades and an ounce of weed. Horrible task.

Razor blades and orange cleaner...You can try a hair dryer to get it to peel up too if you want.

A friend of mine used an ammonia type cleaning solution and his came right off. Just drench the tint and wait awhile.

i think that you should take your car to a shop that specializes in window tinting and let them remove it for you. It wont cost much at all..maybe like $25 you dont want to f*** it up.

I doubt it would only be $25 bucks but its worth a shot to call I guess. You can save yourself alot of stress/hassle lol
