Removing front window tints
Posted: Wed May 06, 2015 10:03 am
Hello, new member here and a new owner of a 2008 X5 M Sport 
I'm trying to remove the tints from the front windows but it is not going as planned! Watched a few tutorials, used a heat gun and for the most part, the tint and adhesive came off ok. However, I couldnt get heat to the glass that sits in the frame around the edge. Not sure if it's clear what I'm trying to explain but net-net is that the adhesive is still present on the glass and is grabbing at the rubber as the window goes up and down.
Can anyone provide guidance on how I remove the adhesive from this area please?
