Professional approach: Since we apply tint to cars, we know the extent to which the patterns extend inside the gasket. We also know the products and techniques that loosen the adhesive. All window surfaces must be thoroughly cleaned to ensure smooth glass operation.
Fragile Defrost Grids: Defrost grids on rear windows can be damaged or pulled out if the adhesive is not softened before peeling off the film or if the adhesive is scraped off. As a result, snow and ice will not melt and you will have to replace the glass. Using a steamer in conjunction with an enclosed technique using safe chemicals is the method we utilize in our shop to loosen the tint. As a result, there is a high probability of safely removing the tint without damaging the grid.
Damage to glass and adhesive residue: Scraping the tint or adhesive can cause scratches on the glass, especially when improper tools are used. Following the removal of the film, a thick layer of adhesive is left on the glass, which collects dirt, affects visibility, and interferes with the smooth operation of the glass. At our facility, we ensure all adhesive is properly removed so your glass is crystal clear as if it’s never been tinted.
Safety measures: All interior trims are covered during tint removal, so nothing gets damaged.
Harmful fumes: Some low-quality old tints can release harmful fumes when removed, which can be hazardous when inhaled. In a reputable shop like ours, PPE and safe removal methods are used.

Side windows aren’t going to get damaged by removing tint at a professional shop. Even though removing tint from rear glass is more challenging than front glass, our shop can do it pretty well. When the rear window tint is low quality, brittle or too old, there is a slight likelihood of damaging the grid lines. However, we optimize the best methods to minimize this risk
Typically, side windows can be removed within one to two hours. The tint removal of the back glass will vary depending on its condition. It may take up to five hours to safely remove the film if it is brittle or too old.
Although the DIY method is possible, it is very challenging without the proper tools and techniques. Defrost grids can be damaged, and left over adhesive can collect dust, reduce visibility and impede smooth operation of your glass.

Interior trims adjacent to the area being worked on should be covered with plastic. The most effective method is to soften the adhesive with a commercial grade steamer. In order to keep steam on the glass, an enclosure can be created for the back window. Spray a tint adhesive remover on the area and allow to sit for the duration as directed on the label. Once the adhesive has softened, it may be wiped away and discarded. There are special cleaning tools to clean inside the rubbers surrounding the glass. Repeat the procedure until all adhesive has been removed. Side windows can be scraped with a stainless-steel razor only at a safe angle. Back windows should never be scrapped or the defrost grids will get damaged. When you work with a professional shop, you will be able to save time and money by not having to take chances on your vehicle yourself.
