A razor will usually do the trick, a detail razor mind you, not a shaving razor.

Just grab the edge with a razor/any sharp object and peel off the film (try to do it so that it comes off in 1 piece)

If this is your rear windscreen, then kiss the de-mister goodbye (something to consider before u actually go ahead and do it)

Re: Window Tint ??

ZEP40 all purpose cleaner does a good job of starting it off right.

Re: Window Tint ??

NH4 is ammonia. A little while ago I needed to get rid of my window tinting too. What I found to be the easiest way to do it is to use a steamer and a razor. The steamer really eats the glue. Much better than ammonia

Razor, then go over the residue with eucalyptus oil.

Dish soap and watter mixed in a spray bottle works very well. Its how I took all the 15% tint off my Nova in preparation for the 2% tint =)
