Removing window tint from a car's back window can be tricky, but you can do it yourself with the right tools and a little patience. This guide will walk you through the steps on how to remove window tint from back window safely. Here are the tools you will need. - Hair dryer or heat gun - Spray bottle with soapy water - Plastic scraper or old credit card - Razor blade (if needed, use carefully) - Glass cleaner - Soft cloth Step 1: Warm Up the Tint Turn on your hair dryer or heat gun to a medium setting. Hold it a few inches away from the tint on the back window and move it around. This helps soften the glue holding the tint to the glass. Keep moving the heat source so you don't crack the window. Step 2: Start to Peel the Tint After a minute or so, use a plastic scraper or an old credit card to lift a corner of the tint. Be gentle, especially if there are defrost lines on the glass. If you can't lift the corner, add more heat and try again. Step 3: Slowly Pull the Tint Once you've lifted a corner, slowly peel off the tint. Pull gently and steadily. If it starts to tear or stick, reheat the area to loosen the glue. Try to take your time with this step to avoid leaving glue behind. Step 4: Clean Off the Glue After you've removed the tint, some glue might still be on the glass. Spray soapy water on the sticky spots and use your plastic scraper to remove the glue. If it's stubborn, you can carefully use a razor blade. Just be careful not to scratch the glass. Step 5: Clean the Window Now that the tint is gone clean the back window with glass cleaner and a soft cloth. Wipe until there are no streaks or spots. By following these steps, you can remove window tint from your car's back window without damaging it. The key is to use heat to soften the glue and peel slowly. If you're not sure about any step, or if you find it too difficult, you can always ask a professional for help. Comments are closed.
