Don't know about the rest of you all, but almost EVERY time I strip and re-tint a car, I will miss a little spot of glue that sticks out like a sore thumb once I apply the new film. And yes, I am very meticulous when cleaning!!!
SO... I figured out that after you clean, spray the window with Rubbing Alcohol. Any glue that might have been missed will turn white. Easy to see and remove after that! beer.gif
