Removing Tint?

I'm wanting to remove some window tint b/c the car only has it on four of the five windows and it's a really crappy job too... Anybody got a recommendation other than a blade?

after i got the tint to peel off with a blade.. i used some of that ammonia window cleaner to loosen up the remaining glue. used a hair dryer too.. be prepared to do a shitload of scraping.. took me about 2 hours to do two windows perfectly..

edit.. i took mine off in cold winter weather.. prolly would of been better to do it in the summer sun.

Okay, that sounds good. I may just do the driver's window so the front windows match I'll get the rest of it off later.

I took it off my rear windows by peeling and scraping it off with glue remover and a flat knife, once I was done I used to vaccum to clean it all up and poof, my window shatterd into 1000 pieces so be careful i wasnt even touching the window when it went.
