How to remove window tints
If the tint is old and is being removed due to deterioration this can usually lead to separation of the adhesive and the laminate. The tint would need to be separated from the window as best as possible, then using a hard plastic scraper and cleaning solution, the window would be cleaned of all remaining adhesive.
If you are preemptively removing your tint, it can be far easier as the laminate and adhesive will still be bonded. In this case simply pulling the tint away from the window with a cleaning agent sprayed into the gap to ensure a clean removal.
