Cleaning Questions (Tint and Headliner)
1.) Have existing tint strip on my windshield from previous owner. Looks as though the tint portion has been removed, but the yellowish/clear film is still there. How do I remove this safely?
2.) My headliner (Atleast I think thats the term) is dirty as **** from previous owner and I want to clean it. Its vinyl, so can I just use a clorox based bleach clean-up or will that discolor it even more?
Thanks

I believe you can get an actual tint prep cleaner. Like they use to put it on to take it off. Im not to sure though.
I would recommend bleach on the headliner. Try a good car cleaner or some Goof-off and try a small inconspicous spot first.

Cool thats what I was thinking on both. i might take the car to a tint place so i dont f anything up, but again thats a chance for them to charge me some stupid amount for a small task

try a mix of Woolite and water in a spray bottle.. 6:1 water:Woolite, a stiff brush, and some elbow grease...

Re: Cleaning Questions (resol)
use water and dish washing soap... and put it in a spray bottle...
spray it on the film.. and grab a dish scrub and scrub the window... and that would work....

Tried that......you need something more potent like clorox. Thanks for the help and nice write-up BUNMANGO
