I just removed the tint from the front windows on my cars. Suprisingly the tint came of in one piece but the glue is stuck. What should I use to remove it? Tried windex and it didnt do anything. I'd rather not use a razor. Suggestions?

I used a mixture of 1 T baby shampoo to 1 C vinager & 3/4 quart H2O. mix into spray bottle. Drench untinted window for about 5 min the soap/vinager will disolve glue. Elbow grease not bad.
BEST OF ALL NO RAZORS NEEDED...

You need 1 quart spray bottle
And yes T is Tablespoon
C is Cup
Drench window by spraying the hell out of it........
over & over for about 2-3 minutes it eats the glues bonding propertys....

:clap: Here's what I did. I used a mix of ammonia and water, then spray on the window and get saran type wrap and stick it over spray. It will hold the liquid between it and the glass. I did it on a sunny day and it helps heat up the glue and was able to take a single edge razor and clean it up easy. Something like one cup of ammonia to 1 quart water. It does not take much spray to do a whole car.
