I have read something about this. Your old tint can be removed with common household items, like black trash bags, ammonia & any razor sharp tools like cutter.

Yes. You can also take it to a tint place and they will remove it. The challenge is getting the tint residue off. Kind of a PIA. Be careful around any antenna and defroster lines on the glass.

spray window cleaner on the film to be remove. Cover it with a blk plastic trash bad and leave it in the sun for a few hours. the film should pill off after that. Then take a razor blade and take off the glue. Seen it done by the shop the took off my tint. Look like a PIA.

I have been looking for a older 930 Turbo, some of the cars I have found have tinted windows, just wanted to make sure it could be removed without harming the glass.

My car failed inspection for tinted windows... I just peeled it off and used glass cleaner and a razor scraper to take out the residue... no issues!

I had tint removed by a pro. He used lots of soapy water out of a spray bottle with razor blades. It was not an easy job. He spent quite alot of time. The result was excellent.

I had a tint shop remove mine. He used a steamer and it peeled right off.
