    So I got my front windows tinted but had to remove the tint because I got pulled over. I guess it left some kind of sticky "glue" or something behind and I was wondering if their is anything I can buy/use to get that off? Any help would great, thanks.

    just use rubbing alcohol. no need to buy SPECIAL tint remover. its just glue on your window.

    I tinted windows for 5 years all you need is a lots of sharp razor blades. then get a spray bottle and put 5 drops of dish soap in and squirt and scrap. for the rear window use steel wool pads.

    It just needs to be signed now. I think I have something like 10-20% tint all-around that was stock when the car was sold in georgia (or at least someone right away put them on) and so far only 1 cop noted that i have tints but didnt care - still had my temp plate.
