Our local auto parts store Kragen sells a liquid in a spray
bottle for "deTinting"  I don't know what it is.. almost like
alcohol mixed with some soap stuff..(I put it in my
spectrometer in my copious free time!) .. but it works for me..
the film lifted right off. If you local auto part store carry
window tint films, ask them if they have the detinting
concoction.

I will also be re-installing the window tint on my 87 van.
I've just noticed that the back window has the defroster
under the film. Between the glass and the film.
Is there an trick to getting this film off without damaging
the defroster?
Also, if your existing film is only slightly scratched, can you
just
put the new film over the old?

THanks
