I should have mentioned you can use some window cleaner with

amonia in it already, like windex.



I used steel wool on windows all the time, it doesnt scratch and

it gets the windows incredibly clean, perfect if you have some

overspray on them too. 00-000 fine works good, you can even

get 0000 fine.

Sweet!



My defrost strips were a big concern and it looks like I'll be able to do it without tearing the strips in pieces. Can't wait to get started now...I've been wanting this aftermarket getto tint to be gone ever since I've had the car and been a little sketch on taking it off...looks like its not all that hard...



Thanks for all the help guys...

razors + defrost strips = bad
well considering the fact that the rear defroster didn't work anyway, it didn't matter. besides, from what i could tell, it didn't hurt the strips anyway.

Mine does, and I intend to keep it that way...Using a blade on the defrosting strips with seperate them from the glass..



I started yesterday on my door windows the way Rob said, and it works like a charm!



With my hatch, I'm gonna do it both ways (Robs and Army's) just to be sure I dont mess the strips up..

on windows with no defroster you can just wet them down good

with window cleaner then use a good razorblade, shouldnt take you

more then 5 minutes or so for a door window
