When Should You Remove Old Tint?
Old, cheap or DIY window film goes bad. If yours is bubbling, peeling, going purple, or scratched from a razor blade, it's time. Removing it properly is a specialist job — done wrong you can scratch the glass or destroy the rear defroster lines forever.
How We Remove Tint (The Right Way)
We use a heat-and-steam method — never razor blades — so the film comes off cleanly without touching the glass. Any adhesive residue is dissolved with a proper solvent designed for automotive glass, then the windows are polished and cleaned ready for new film (or just to be left crystal clear).
Rear Defroster Warning
The thin metal lines on your rear window are heat elements. A DIY razor-blade removal will slice through them and you'll lose your rear defroster. We work around them, and if any lines have already been damaged by previous installers, we'll flag it before we start.
Cost & Turnaround
Removals are priced per window — €15 per door, €10 per quarter window, €50 for the windshield, €60 for the rear windscreen, €20 for a sunstrip. A full-car removal (four doors + rear) is typically €120+, completed same-day. Deposit equals the total for jobs like this — you pay in advance and there's no balance on collection.
Aftercare
See our tint-removal guide. You may see faint residue for 24–48 hours; a wipe with ammonia-free cleaner clears it.
