Caring for car window tint film is not difficult if you know what you are doing. However, if you are not sure about how to take care of your car window tint film, then you are better off leaving the task to the professionals. According to the car window tinting service providers, tinted car windows should only be washed using mild soaps, for example mild dish-washer soaps with a soft towel on the inside. Harsh cleaners, such as those that contain ammonia should never be used when cleaning the said tinted windows as they normally shorten the life span of the tinting film.

With time, the installed car window tinting film eventually deteriorates, thus has to be replaced. The major cause of this deterioration is the slow break down of the nonmetallic dye in the tinting film due to passage of time. This causes the changing of its color and the formation of bubbles to the surface. This forces the adhesive bonding the film to weaken, subsequently drying out. As a result of these damages, even the best car window tint film will have to eventually be removed and replaced.

On the other hand the window tinting removal process is a task that is best left to the professionals. When done by a well trained professional, the process takes approximately three hours to be completed. And unless under warranty, the tint removal process is an expensive process that has to done with utmost care if subsequent damages onto the car windows are to be avoided.

Basically, the longer you wait to have a damaged tint film removed, the more chances of it becoming brittle, thus more difficult to remove. This means that the film will have to be scrapped with some more specialized equipment if damages to the defroster lines are to be prevented. This makes the whole process quite expensive in the long run. Basically, it will take you more time to complete the removal process if you opt to remove the film yourself than takes a professional car window tint installer. This being the case, it makes more sense to have the tint film installed, removed and replaced by professional car window tint installers near you than deciding to do it by yourself.
