I keep getting asked how I removed the tint from my car. I used this method to remove tint. Worked very well and was not hard to do.

There are lot's of methods on that page! I used the heat gun and peel it off slow method. No residue. Did the Celsior and my 4wd Nissan.

Another way I have seen it successfully done many times is using a steam gun.

Yup... I've seen it done with a steam gun too. Came off easy and neatly.

just did the side window tint removal today. (at night had to wind down windows to see) used a hair dryer to heat up the glue so it would peel easy then once i got all the black tint off i used "goof-off 2" to get the left over glue on the glass, then used window cleaner to finish off. now i can see!!

Glad to see I am not the only one with too dark windows. I'm just gonna get a pro to do.

Nearly ran over a school girl today because my tint was so dark I couldn't make her out (mind you she did run infront of me to get to a bus)
