The short answer
Tint Chattanooga removes old or failing window tint with steam and hand tools, then strips all leftover adhesive so glass is clean and clear. Rear windows are handled carefully to protect defroster lines. Most customers pair removal with a new Llumar film install.
Tint has turned purple or brown
Bubbles or blisters across the glass
Peeling or lifting edges
Haze that makes it hard to see at night
Too dark to be legal, or you just want a new look
Peeling film by hand usually leaves the glue behind, and razor blades can cut rear defroster lines for good. We use steam and professional adhesive removers to take everything off without the damage.

Remove and re-tint in one visit, and save on removal. Your new film is color-stable and covered by a lifetime warranty, so it won't turn purple again.
