Default Removing Tint???

Does anyone on here know how to remove tint, and also without leaving glue on the glass. I have some really dark tint that came with my hatch and I hate it.

well i did mine myself...not really know what i was doing.....if its a good quality film you sholdnt have a problem...i just used a razor to get an edge off then i just peeled the rest off...and scraped the rest of the glue off with the razor....but the back window was a bitch cuz you cant use a razor if you have defrost in the back so that took me forever....and the mistake i made was using a brillo pad type of deal to get the glue off of the back window and i scrathed it all up.....i should of used goo off or whatever its called

another good thing to getthe remaining glue off is Gun Scrub, or Gun Cleaner. Its got the tri-oxide something or other in it that will remove anything. and the best part is that it drys off quickly and leaves no film what so ever on the window. you can find that stuff at a local gun shop, sporting goods store. i get mine at oshmans for those of you that have oshmans around. I know you texas boys have a load of them out there.
