Q - Tips for Removing Tint

So far I have removed my pass and drivers side. I can see out the windows again! Well, its not like its by choice but I'm going to take it off for the last time. I just wanted to know if anyone had any tips for removing the glue that is left behide. I bought some spray stuff but its not working as good as I hoped. Think this is the last time I'm going to deal with this hassle.

That is a good idea. Ever use it for the glue left behind from tint? Looking for someone who did this before who knows the best way. There has to be a easier way to do it. Always is a easier way.

i have never used it for tint glue specifically, but i picked up a bottle of "sticky stuff remover" and it has worked perfectly on ever single thing I have tried it on. it was like 6 dollars at a local supermarket.

i dont know if it would be safe on glass but i used it to take off the glue from my emblems and it worked so good. its in a liquid form and it just sprays on. Its called bug and tar remover.
