Car owners love installing car tints on their car windows. The tints do not only give a more elegant look to the car, but they also play an important role in making the interior of the car a bit cooler.

They say "nothing lasts forever," and this holds true for car tints too. There comes a time when you need to replace your old car tints with new ones. Whatever the reason for this replacement is, you now want to get the car tint removed. The best way to do is to avail the services of a professional.

However, there may be a situation where you cannot reach out to the tinting experts and you are left to do things on your own. Don't worry because in this article, we'll talk about the various ways through which you can safely remove your car tint.

The good news is that there are more than one methods to remove the tint. You can choose whatever suits you. Before we list down the methods, here is a tip for you: start the process in the smallest panel first so that you get the feel of the process. Since you are working on a small segment, you don't really have to worry about making mistakes.

1. Soap and Newspaper Method
Things Needed: Newspaper, glass cleaner, rags, bucket, dish soap, razor blade
Spray the surface of the tint with the soapy solution (using the dish soap and the glass cleaner) and cover it with newspaper. Leave it for about an hour. Keep checking the newspaper to see whether it has gone dry. Now, peel the newspaper using the razor blade. Since the tint film will be glued to the newspaper, it will come off easily.


2. Hairdryer Technique
Things Needed: hairdryer, piece of cloth, razor blade, paper towels, glass cleaner
Set your hair dryer on the highest possible setting. Turn it on and direct the airflow on the corner of the tint you want to remove. The tint will begin to curl up, making it a lot of easier for you to peel it off. Keep drying the section between the tint and the car window glass to peel off the tint. Make sure to keep the dryer at a distance of about two inches from the car window.


3. Ammonia and Sun Method
Things Needed: steel wool, spray bottle containing ammonia solution, paper towels, razor blade, unused plastic garbage bags, ordinary dish soap
Cut several pieces of plastic bag to cover the inside and outside of the car window. Spray the soapy solution on the outside of the car window and cover it with plastic bag. Spray the ammonia solution of the inside of the car window and cover it with plastic bag. Leave it for some time. Then, start peeling the chunks of plastic bag glued to the car window. In case some chunks of tint are left behind, use a razor blade to peel them off.


Summary ​
Isn't it easy to remove car tint on your own? Even though it is always advisable for you to get your car tint removed by an expert who knows how to skillfully remove the film without damaging the surface of car windows, this guide will help you remove the tint from some sections of the car windows.
