How to fix a bad Window-tint

Things You'll Need

• Lint-free cleaning towel
• Window cleaner
• New sheet of window tinting
• Tape measure
• Single-edged razor blade
  

Step One

Call a tinting professional for his or her opinion. This will cost nothing, and he or she is going to tell you that there are no solutions except taking off the existing film and starting over.

Step Two

Start at a corner of the tinting. Take a single-edged razor blade and carefully tease up enough of the tinting film to grab with your fingers.

Step Three

Remove the film. Using even pressure, carefully pull the film off the window. Try to get it off the window in one piece.

Step Four

Clean the window with a window cleaner. This is the most important step. Even the smallest particle of debris will cause the film to bubble again.

Step Five

Wipe the window with a cloth towel. Carefully inspect the window for any traces of lint.

Step Six

Measure the window. Take precise measurements of the window and carefully cut a new sheet of tinting.

Step Seven

Apply the tinting film. Carefully apply the new film with a firm, straight edge. Go very slowly to avoid bubbling.
