I spent 3 hours removing the tint today...and yes, the steam works! But, only to a certain extent...see, my tint is probably 20 years old, and it sure as hell didn't peel right off like the youtube videos. I still scraped long and hard. And I still have the 2 rearmost windows to do.

Any decent tint shop should be able to remove it for you in very short order for a low price. Probably a lot cheaper than your time is worth goofing around with trying to remove it yourself.

Anyway, I'm finally done removing all the old tint! It took me a total of 4 & 1/2 hours of scraping & peeling, but I've finally got it! And yes, the steam worked out great. It would have been easier if the tint weren't so old, but either way, I knew I was going to remove it sooner or later. It looks so much better with clear windows!
My co-worker asked me today if I was going to re-tint my windows after I remove all the old stuff. I was like --->
