wishminewasanss Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 Hey guys and gals, so a couple of weeks ago I was pulled over by the law. And the cop was a dick with me about my tint! So anyways now I have 2 take the tint off and have the damn ticket signed off by a cop, and I know no cop in Cali will sign a ticket for a truck with 5% on it. So iam not really sure with what? Or how 2 remove it? BTW its 5% I need 2 remove. TIA!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pimp ss Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 all you need is a couple razor blades and some cheap window cleaner with ammonia if you are lucky you have cheap tint and you can start one corner and it will peel off with the glue in one piece try that before you go at it with razor blades the last one i removed took 2 minutes for 4 windows it was cheap tint and the glue and all came off in one shot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12'SROCK Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 you dont know anyone thats a cop or anyone that knows a cop to sign it off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kersey Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 any time I had to remove tint I had scrape it all off with a razor and scub the clue off with some type of solvent. make sure to get all the glue off or the window will hang up when you let it down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 The best way I've found is to remove it with a razor blade. To get the glue off once you get the tint material off there simply use nail polish remover with acetone in it. The glue will wipe right off there. I found the trick to the tint ticket. Have a dad who's truck looks almost identical to yours without tint on his windows. I got a tint ticket and went to the police station with his truck with my plate on it. The officer signed off the ticket without a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our officers run the plate on the correction notice and then compare the vin on the vehicle brought in to be signed off. :cold: Plus if you get caught switching plates it really gets expensive.

The officer signed off the ticket without a problem. The end suggestion doesn't sound like a good idea, then what happens when you get pulled over again by the same cop? When I took my tint off I first peeled a corner and ripped really fast and most of the glue came off. I than got a mild degreaser and spray the glue with the degreaser, let it sit for a minute and than razor blade it off. Make sure to tape off the surrounding plastic interior peices.

KJT13 Posted August 16, 2008 Report Share Posted August 16, 2008 I did the blackbeast ss on my car last last week. It was a sunny day. (got a sunburn) it was true. Easy to peel the tint after doing the process. _____________________ My Blog: green minded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
