Default Easiest Way To Remove Tint Residue/Request for pics

Hey guys, gettin' the bird tinted on Monday. I think i'm gonna go with 20%.. can some of you post up pics of 20%?

Now to the point.. I still have some residue on my windows left from the old tint. What's the easiest way to get this off? Anything in the house that might get it right off?

Thanks!

simple green worked wonders along with a razor blade. If you take it very easily and slowly, and keep the tint pulled tight it will come off without leaving adhesive behind.

Yeah I was pulling it off tightly for the most part, but it made a rip sound and left some adhesive behind haha. I've been w/o tints for like 2 or 3 months, can't wait to see it done on monday. I don't like the feeling of people being able to see inside with ease.
