Removing Tinit Glue

[R TUNE]

Ok removed the rear window tint due to being to bubly and wont to go darker.

now that i removed the tint it has left a glue on the window.

im currently useing wax and greas remover but it's takeing ages and requires a lot of force to dislodge. did try metho to no avail.

does any one know of something that can 'cut' the glue with out scratching the glass and demister.

if youve got a clothes steamer or one of those general house cleaner steamer thingo's that usually works.

if you started with using the steamer you wouldnt have had the glue problem, the tints would've come off without the glue staying on the glass. so use the steamer and a razor.

I was going to say Metho and get scrubbing!

Straight Metho too, no diluting.

I have also used paint stripper to remove adhesive off glass, but I don't think that is a good idea to use in your car.

It is very corrosive and you need to hose it off.

You could apply a little bit of paint stripper and get a bucket of water and a wet a cloth and wipe if off...

Just be careful not to get the paint stripper anywhere on the interior of the car and yourself.

OK - if you're dissatisfied with the methylated spirits...

Plan B:- I used to work in pharmacy.

And some detailers used to come in and buy pure acetone to clean glass back to its pristine state.

Acetone is the main ingredient in nail polish remover - but without the oil.

Pathology labs use acetone to clean glass slides for microscopy.

To test-clean, use a bit of your Mum's nail polish remover on a small patch of the rear windscreen and if it's effective, go to the chemist and get 100ml of the pure stuff. Keep the windows open whilst using it.
