Talking Tint Removal

Today I ran out and picked up a few supplies for removing this Horid silver tint the the previous owner put on my 280zx. One item I picked up was a spray on fluid called Gila, This stuff really does the trick. First I pealed off as much of the film as i could wile it was dry, but once I applied the Gila spray and covered it with a Trash bag The rest of the Horid tint came off no problem. I CAN Z AGAIN

Just to let you know i spent about 4-5 hours doing my two door windows and i took them out of my door to do, but 6 hours later and it feels like i was in the gym for a day or two. My point is Let the Spray soak in long enough and, do it on a day you dont have to work. I was rushing to get the glass back in the door before i had to run to work heheh. Came out Great though verry happy with it plan on taking out quarter windows tomrrow.

I don't have that kind of time right now, the place that did my 350 says they'll do the vert for $80. That's remove and retint. So think I'll just have them do it. They did an exellent job on the 350 and only charged me $160+ tax total.

Thats one Killer Deal

I have recently visited a place that is well known in the Greenville for tint, they said it would be about 120 bucks just to take the tint off of my 280zx. Thats why i did it my self, im not sure if i want to retint I like being able to see.
