You'l always have to use a scraper even if the tint is new. Most tint will peel off by hand and then the razorblade is to scrape the adhesive glue off.


Starting in the corner is easiest. I can strip 2 front windows and have them sparkling in under 10 minutes.

Use a heat gun if you have one to get the tint kinda bubbly and ready to come off.. With that and a razor blade scraper I did 2 front windown on my gfs car in a couple minutes..

Heat gun is not needed unless your not strong enough to peel the film off without.
Makes a mess IMO. Peeling off cold is best.
