how to remove tint?
It's easy to remove. Just start at a corner and pull it up with a razor blade. The film itself comes off super easy but it's the clear adhesive part that takes a little bit.
Just use a spray bottle with soap/water mix and a fine edged scraper to get that off. You can have each window done in a few minutes a piece if you're careful. Windows with integrated defrosters can be a pain.......again, you just have to be careful.

watch when using a razor... I did this method, and ended up scratching my passenger side window... now I can see fine scratches that can't be removed. And a whole new window is $400+ which sucks *****...
Just do it professionally...

It's summertime so Im going to give you guys a little secret I used to use in FL. 
Side windows are peel and scrape. Just keep a fresh blade and you wont scratch the windows.
This is for the back windows with defrosters.
1. Take a black trash bag and cut it (a little big) to the shape of the rear window.
2.Take 409 (other cleaners with high alchohol content work well too) and spray the back window (inside). I mean soak the crap out of it. Lay towels if preffered to not completely soak your rear deck.
3. Take the black trash bag and lay it against the inside of the glass, using the solvent to "stick" it to the window. It doesn't have to be perfect... bubbles are ok...just make sure it stays on the window for the most part.
4. Now go park the car directly in the sun for 15-20mins. Repeat the process 3-5 times. Pull bag the bag, soak it, and put it back. You should be able to see it bubbling with most films after some time.
After repeating a few times just start in a corner and peel. Most of the glue will come right off with the film. If it doesn't what little is left can be quickly removed with a little piece of scrub pad and soapy water.
