God it's terrible. It's not that it's particularly hard, but it's so time consuming and tedious! I don't ever want to do that again.

When we strip out a patrol car like a K-9 our county road commission guys use hair dryer on the window tint to get it off.  I honestly don't know how well it works but they also use that Goo-gone stuff.

This.  I didn't have a razor blade holder, so I just used my hands, which are now cut to shit.

After you wake up with the sun at 6am on someone's floor, coughing up cigarette butts and tasting like warm beer, you may well change your opinion on this matter.

Careful with that tint, failure to remove correctly could result in catastrophic engine failure.

Also, I recommend buying a Buick if your problems persist.

Our van had aftermarket tint on the front windows. Including a HUGE install wrinkle on the passenger window, right where you look at the mirror.

I paid $20 to the tint guy- he had the old off and new tint back on in about 10minutes.
